This was posted on my Hybrid 79/80 build, but thought that if it had it's own post maybe I would get some better responses.

I've been working on stripping the 80 series wiring harness of everything that I won't need on the pick-up like ABS, Airbags, cruise control, AC, power antenna, power door stuff, etc and am at the point that I need a little help.

I want to use a steering column out of a 1986 BJ70, 3B with 24V system if possible and hopefully morph the 80 series wiring harness to the horn, wipers, turn signals, high/low beams, headlights, ignition, for my FZJ79/80 build and need help identifying what wires on the BJ70 steering column go to what. I have a manual, but I just couldn't figure it out.

These all mount under/onto the steering column.

I wish I would have thought of that Wayne when I was up there. Maybe someone could scan a page where this is referenced in the FSM?
 
Just looked and nothing in the manual thread.
 
Wayne, your scanner isn't back up and running by any chance is it?

Or does anyone else have the wiring diagrams for a 1988 BJ70? Specifically the steering column so I can identify what each of the wires in the above pictures goes to?
 
That would be perfect, but is unreadable even when I save it and try to print it. Blowing it up makes it even worse.
