hardbody headlight switch wiring

[griffmac]

i need help figuring out how the headlight/turn signal switch works in my 93 hardbody. I pulled out the harness when I put a ka24de in and im trying to hardwire the switch but I don't know what the power wire is or what wires go to what lights.


I have 8 wires

brown/white gray/blue gray/red pink/blue

orange green red/yellow pink/black

Welcome to Nico!

Check out the EL section of this FSM.

I know it's for a 90 but the wiring between that and a 93 is similar sans the gauge cluster. Hope that helps out a bit.

I have studied that for days. I don't understand the switch diagram at all. There are to many dots...

Well the original harness used 6 wires for the H/L switch. Connector #242M according to the 93 FSM I own. 242M plugs directly into the H/L switch itself. The only pins used in that connector are #'s 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.

Red= Pin 8
Red/Black Stripe= Pin 10
Red/Green Stripe= Pin 7
Red/Yellow Stripe= Pin 9
Red/Blue Stripe= Pin 6
Red/White Stripe= Pin 5

That's for the original D21 Harness. My question: Since you swapped to a DE I would like to know where the new harness came from? Is it a d22 truck or s13/s14 240 harness?

I have the d21 sub harness for the headlights and instrument panel with a big square plug the front bo sody/engine harness is gone so I'm trying to figure out how to jump into the sub harness and not have 10 switches all over my dash
