OOPS - Electrical help please (solved with pics)
First of all let's talk about the main issue... I was installing aftermarket dash gauge faces tonight. When I was removing the outer bezel and dimmer control I yanked too hard before removing the connections to the dimmer. A green wire went "pop" however I couldn't see where it would be attached. There's about 3 inches of green wire still connected to the connector with nothing but insulation visible on the end. I see no frayed loose wires it should connect to. After putting everything else back together, the dash illumination (radio and A/C controls too) are illuminated at the lowest level when the car is on and they turn off when I turn the headlights on (dash lights should be on too). Moving the dimmer dial has no effect.
Where's that green wire supposed to go? It does go somewhere right? If so I'm going to need to take it to someone who knows what they're doing cause I can't see where it is.
Second - I had someone put in a bass kill switch a year or so ago. They just left the switch dangling between two dash panels. I decided to clean it up with a new switch that I'd install in the cargo cup DIN slot. It's one that has a light that activates when the switch is flipped on. I've got it all hooked up, except for the light part. I need to connect a wire to the extra prong on the switch from.... where?
BTW - new pics of all this and my newly painted dash kit coming as soon as I get my neighbor to let me borrow his camera.
