True Classic
Got the relay sockets wired, and function tested the controlled features. Trunk release now works from the remote as well as the override switch (still have both manual releases) . Rocker switch is for courtesy light override, so they don't stay on past the delay sequence when the doors are left ajar for work. Some revision to the relay wiring was needed as I of course mixed up a couple of the harness connections. All good now. Took awhile to get all the wires wedged back into the fuse panel support/cover - since they've been hanging out loose for a week or so they did not want to conform back into the compressed space between panel & cover.
Whats' not good is the mess of a positive feed to the aux power supply. I added a fused line to it, and the whole mess is just way to bulky & inflexible for ease of operation. It can be tucked up out of sight, I left it down to show just how ungainly it is. Seemed OK when everything was down, but hey, something was bond to go awry. It even interferes with the forward harness, as the rigid positive wires impede the forward harness looping up against the bulkhead as they should. I'll be revising the cable junction, and replacing the feed to the aux power junction with more flexible 8 or 10 AWG wiring, with less junctions.
All the loose wires no linger used will be tidied up for possible future use, I labelled the terminating end of each so I won't forget
Still, getting close to being ready to drop the heater box & move on with that aspect.
