I'm trying to sort out a rat's nest of electrical issues in my 1979 X. The nice color wiring diagram on this site for the 80/81 doesn't seem to completely match my '79, and the '75 diagram doesn't either. The Haynes diagram is not much help . . .
The PO pulled the air conditioner, radio and heater controls, so none of that wiring is connected. The wiring that IS needed is spliced, cut and otherwise intended to confuse. :mad2:
I'm currently trying to get the dash lights to work. The rheostat has a hot lead that works, a ground, and a third wire that goes up into the harness. There are no obvious wires for the dash light switch that I can sort out, so I am tracing things with a multimeter.
The dash light switch has 2 positions, can anyone tell me why? I tried to find an owner's manual online, but the link is broken.
Thanks for any thoughts,
