Wire harness Help m151a1

Unread post by poof » April 7th, 2010, 10:37 am

hello all.. im in need of help from the Wire Guru's
I have a bowl of noodles

so far I have managed to get all my lights to work properly..
I have no dash guages working.. but dash lights work proper .
this is the diagram i am working with...
I took a picture of the things in question..

and drew a diagram of what I have now with numbered wires and where they are going to now...along with unnumbered , i have no clue wires..

I see 3 circuit breakers on the diagram but i only have 2 located on the dash/fire wall... the top one is not there, i beleive it is for the horn..

On my drawing top (heater switch.).. there is a resistor on the out side wall, next to that is a circuit breaker, that is being used in conjunction with the rotery on/off switch.
but I dont see that breaker in the wire diagram. Is it part of the heater kit?
heater is a hot water heater on passenger side foot well.....

On back of dash panel guage cluster.. I have one wire loose, taged #33 and one un marked wire going into wire harness.. i belive i will match these two..for now..
I found, while doing vaccuum hoses yesterday.. that a Ground Strap from the Vacuume pump is off from the frame... so I will be regrounding that,

I need the plug for my break lights , it go's to the hydrolic switch... I do not have the plug.. any one have that plug with a pig tail to tie into. lying around.. LMK what you need for it..i atached a picture of what is under my dash what i need plugs into this..pic jeep014

the fuel pump is wired to a switch on the dash.. i dont see that on the diagram either..but it it works now to start jeep.

so senerio is.. I can start the jeep and drive it.. I have all my lights working properly.. except Brake lights.( need plug).. I have no guages working only the speedo.. no horn... no heater motor running...

I would really like to have guages working.

so if my my drawings and description havent confused you more than the wires have me..
HELP.. Please

if its easyer to call and talk, send me an Email and i will call you on my dime.
Thank you


J.P.

P.S. looking for a siren too.

ETA :ok I woundered why that went so smooth for me.... I will have to take tomorrow off and go through the host photobucket.. and post the pictures. sorry about that

hello

the resistance and the fuse are from the heater

they get power from the contact switch

wire 33 is the wire to the temp sending switch on the engine (it go on the temp meter )

no 28 to the fuel gage no 36 oil pressure

all the meters get power from wire no 27 only the batt meter is no 27B

the dash must have a ground normally a wire on a rivet

the upper fuse is for the horn it has wire no`s 25 it get direct power from the foot starter switch
