my best friend is going to custom fab a steering column (buggy style with removable steering wheel) (bar stock with PTO ujoint or yj column)

anyway...
He is running a 1990 gmc jimmy fullsize with the factory harness. What plugs or wires on the column go to:
ignition?
turn signals?
hazards?

Thanks for any help.. it is much needed
 
Oh , and BTW , I did discover they changed the pinouts of tilt columns at some point . Jason and I both used whatever column we had with whatever wiring we had in our truggies .......... crank but no start with the wrong column . I ended up with tilt in the truggy :laugh:
 
Scanner crapped out , I had the TBI harnesses on the PC , the others still in book . I will try to scan later , but heres the colors :

yellow on ignition switch = from start in ignition switch to neutral safety/clutch in switch where it turns purple

brown/white on ignition switch = from run in ignition switch to alternator

red on ignition switch = to battery positive/starter which jumps to alternator too basically all would tie to junction block

purple on wiper washer switch = to wiper motor , joins one of the greys there ( there are two greys on wiper motor , joined in the harness )

black/light blue on wiper washer switch = to wiper motor by itself

grey on wiper washer switch = to wiper motor , this turns into two in the harness and goes to two spots on wiper motor

pink on wiper washer switch = to wiper washer motor

pink on ignition switch = to tbi distributor

light blue on turn signal switch = to left front turn lights

yellow on turn signal switch = to left rear stop turn tail lights

dark green on turn signal switch = to right stop turn tail lights

dark blue on turn signal switch = to right front turn lights

purple on hazzard switch = to flasher

brown on hazzard switch = to convenience center

white on hazzard switch = to brake switch

yellow or light blue = from dimmer switch to headlight switch

tan = dimmer switch to headlight low

light green = dimmer switch to headlight high

And thats all I can gather from my book . Hope I didn't miss one :D
