well the harness that plugs into the back of the switch is all wired in right i just need to run the wires to the fuse box or where ever they go and to be quite honest im retarded with wiring. i know the simple stuff but im just confused as to what goes where as far as coil, starter, and battery.

Switch has marks by each post on the back.
List as follows:
Starting at the top post marked "A" with org. color and wire gauge

A> accessory to wiper switch 12g Light Blue with
splice to fuse box alt reg fuse and 14g red to fuel gauge (buss bar on amp guage)<<12g LB This is the wire
that hooks to the braker on the back of the
wiper motor switch.>>

S> (just below A) 14g orange to fire wall> runs to
the start post on the starter relay

I-2> (to the right side of "I" if not marked)14g pink to ballast resistor- same side as coil
"+" wire

B> above "B" not marked 2 wires
18g blue with white stripe- to brake sentinel switch on brake line spliter box- 18g blue with white stripe
to warning light on dash

B> below "B" - 10g black this wire runs many things-
runs to splice- that then goes to back of amp gauge (10g red), fuse block (10g red), light switch (16g dark blue), Alternator (10g black)

I> 2 wires, 18g black runs to oil pressure light,
16g red runs to fire wall and then to ballast (side
with one wire).

I belive this is all correct.

hope this helps Jeff
