Help-realtime problem-cigarette ltr. wiring

[YosarianRem]

Help first, ridicule later please. I have the dash apart and my multimeter is now swimming in the dog bowl (underneath the passenger door). Does anyone have a wiring diagram that shows what the four wires coming out of the back of the cigarette lighter are? 1997 80.....Thanks in advance.

Yos;

Per EWD189U, Page 72 & 93 for the 1994 FZJ80.

The [G] Green lead is feed by the TAIL fuse. (Illumination)

The [WG] White/Green lead is (Illumination) ground.

The [GR] GRay lead is feed by CIG fuse; which powers the CigLighter, rear view mirrors, clock, radio, antenna, auto xmission shift lock system.

The [WB] White/Black lead is ground.


Should be the same for the 1997.

It's good to be missed! No questions because I've been pretty busy, pretty broke, and unfortunately not able to do much fun stuff with my cruisers. No answers because, well, I'm pretty much a newbie. Though I did recently replace the front & rear brake pads (with a little help from Otis and the FSM)... I do try to regularly read the forum, and I'm learning quite a bit. My sincere thanks to the folks who make IH8MUD work!

Sorry, I don't know how #3 got into this thread! I was replying to what looked like an automated question about why I haven't posted recently. Please forgive me, I'm still learning. No thread hi-jack intended, but I'm still trying to figure out how to use the FAQ's! Carry on...

No power from lighter, right?

If you have this problem look no further than the lighter recepticle. There is a small (.25 inch) curved wire on the back that burns out under a load. Replacing this is pretty simple once you get the dash panel out, cost about $30 at MrT.
