Question Hi I recently replaced my broken tail light with one from the 83-87 which has different wiring configuration than the 88-. I was wondering if you might have a wiring diagram for the earlier and later models. I've tried studying both circuit boards but it confusing. I just need to figure out which wires to switch around in the plug. My old boards are in bad shape and not working with out running jumper wire.
Answer Matt, its not really confusing at all. 83-87 brake light is at the top right if you are looking at a left assembly. All you have to do is take a test light and test all wires, turn signal, etc. Have someone put there foot on the brake and test the wires. The one that is lit will be the brake light. Dont confuse it with the power wire. Roger
