wires, wires so many wires, brown for negative red and black for positive green n brown for god knows what blue and red, red and yellow.

anyways

i got a blinker switcher unit off a 86 4000S and i notice it has wires for res and set buttons on it, is that for cruise control?

ok what i want to know is does anyone know exactly what each wire is for? i want to hook up some lights to power up with the res on off switch and flash with the set button, i know what i need to do i just need to know what each wire does before i do it, i don't need to blow the whole fuse panel again (stereo installation and lame volume control on drivers side mishap =P )

i need to know what ones for power and which is negative, and which wire is for the positive and negative for the res switch and also for the set switch. ill name the color of the wires as if you where looking at it with the tooth at the top

red/green > blue > red yellow > blue/black > red/blue and solid blue with red dot > red/black

which ones go to the res switch which ones go to the set button etc.

i could open it but then id probally break it and 4000's in the junkyard are rare around here.

oh and another thing that gripes me is following a wire thats say red/black and it magically changes into a completely different color

I have one for the 4000 models, 1987. It breaks everything down into sub-systems, which to me is actually more confusing. Part # on mine is W42 501 142 1. I got mine used at the Carlisle Import show.

Don't you be Tarot-fied
It's just a token of my extreme
Don't you be Tarot-fied
It's just a token of my extreme

Don't you never try to look behind my eyes
You don't wanna know what they have seen
Don't you never try to look behind my eyes
You don't wanna know what they have seen

Joe:


Some people think
That if they go too far
They'll never get back
To where the rest of them are
I might be crazy
But there's one thing I know
You might be surprised
At what you find out when ya go!

Oh oh oh
Mystical Advisor
What is my problem, tell me
Can you see?

L. Ron Hoover:

Well, you have nothing to fear, my son!
You are a Latent Appliance Fetishist,
It appears to me!

Joe:

That all seems very, very strange
I never craved a toaster
Or a color T.V.

L. Ron Hoover:

A Latent Appliance Fetishist
Is a person who refuses to admit to his or herself
That sexual gratification can only be acheived
Through the use of MACHINES . . .
Get the picture?

Joe:

Are you telling me
I should come out of the closet now
Mr. Ron?

L. Ron Hoover:

No, my son!
You must go into
THE CLOSET

Joe:

What?

L. Ron Hoover:

And you will have

Joe:

Eh?

L. Ron Hoover:

Hey!
A lot of fun!
That's where they all live
So if you want an
Appliance to love you
You'll have to go in there
'N get you one

Joe:

Well . . . that seems simple enough . . .

L. Ron Hoover:

Yes, but if you want a really GOOD one,
You'll have to learn a foreign language . . .

Joe:

German, for instance?

L. Ron Hoover:

That's right . . .
A lot of really cute ones come from over there!
(Fifty bucks, please)

L. Ron Hoover:

If you been
Mod-O-fied,
It's an illusion, an yer in between
Don't you be
Tarot-fied,
It's just a lot of nothin',
So what can it mean?

Central Scrutinizer:

This is the CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER . . . Joe has just learned to speak German. Now, get this, here's why he did it! He's gonna go to this club on the other side of town, it's called THE CLOSET . . . And they got these Appliances in there that really go for a guy dressed up like a housewife who can speak German (you know what I mean) . . . so Joe's learned how to speak German, he goes in this place and he sees these little Kitchen Machineries dancing around with each other, and he sees this one . . . that looks like it's a cross between an industrial vacuum cleaner and a chrome piggy bank with marital aids stuck all over its body . . . it's eally exciting . . . and when he sees it, he BURSTS INTO SONG . . .
