I'm lost. OP started related to door switches (which control the interior light) and parking brake switch and parking brake light that went in-operative. All are driven by ground switching.
Then middle posts changed to console / trunk lights and grey wires and chasing around power feeds? where did that come from ?
Which problem is being worked on?
The Prospero's garage schematic is worthless to understand what was going on in the buzzer/relay and seat belt interlock system. Use the Haynes Manual. The seat belt interlock/buzzer/warning lamp and door switches are totally independent circuits from the park brake light.
Interior light and park brake warning light are independent of the seat belt warning buzzer and lamp presence. Yes, buzzer does get ground feeds from door switch contact and column key switch but interior light and park brake lamp light operation are not affected by the buzzer/seat belt warning lamp.
I'm happy to help but need to know what problem is trying to be solved. Need to focus on one thing at a time and using schematics and DMM.
@robkammerThanks Superhawk: I do jump around, sometimes forgot I posted something too. Sorry. This project started out as fuel lines and the project creep took me to carpet, and that took me to the center console and fusebox wiring. Before putting it back together I want to be sure everything works as it should. Prior to disassembly the gauge lights did not work, nor did the interior/trunk or plate lights.
At this point here is what I have: Continuity from the gray in the console back to the plate lights. Continuity from both door switches to the cabin for the backrest light. If these switch through the switch to ground I assume I also need to send a direct ground to the light in addition to the brown/white.
I have gauge light power now for the console harness and it's cleaned and ready.
The seatbelt relay has quite a few wires just laying under the seat. Between the Haynes diagram and drawings in the notebook site I have that pretty much back together but I don;t think its right yet.
Using the attached drawing I have a couple oddities. Where the drawing calls for a green/white (#10) there was a double yellow/white attached and I do have a loose green white. The drawing makes no reference to a double yellow/white and also shows nothing connected to terminal 11. In addition to the double yellow/white I have a single yellow/white connected to #9 per the drawing.
I've also referenced Jeff's photo also attached, I have the three black leads connected to the relay like the picture but they lead nowhere.
Another issue if I ground the parking brake switch lead the red flasher light flashes but nothing else.
So, in addition to the relay board issue I have to provide power to the gray lead that heads to the rear, figure our the parking brake issue, and confirm that I need a hard ground to the backpad light.
Tonight I was going to take the relays home and diagram the terminal numbers to compare with the Haynes schematic but I you have any ideas please share.
Once I get this straight, and before the interior goes back in I'm going to replace the fuse panel. Then if anything is wrong at least I'll know who did it!
I once bought a really nice classic Boston Whaler. Did not realize until I went to put a battery disconnect switch in that the PO had rewired EVERYTHING with brown lamp cord. That was pretty bad but this little teener is proving to be quite a head scratcher.
