Hello, my problem is the following: I had a problem with the alarm. I'm not sure, but I think it was not from the factory, because I proceeded to eliminate the entire system and put all the old cables as they were, color with color, right there, take advantage and I replaced the air conditioning blower, everything was fine until then. However, when I installed the dash in its place and everything as it was, I began to have an electricity problem, first it was some things like the power lock, power window, fix that, then the buttons got mixed up. If I hit the power window on the driver's side, it does not lower the glass but turns on the high beams. When I try to put the dash the spark boot screw as if the dash had live current, but I have searched everything, and I do not see any wire making contact. The problem I have is that all the diagrams that I have found have the wires of different colors that do not match mine. How can I make sure I have the ground wires where they go correctly?

Hi,

Wow, this is an interesting one. You mentioned wire colors, but the ground wires are basically all black. There are some tracer colors, but the primary wire will be black.

I attached the ground distribution schematics below. I had to cut each of the pics in half to make them readable for you. I did overlap them so you can follow from one to the next.

Take a look through them and let me know if they help or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
