is there a site like the mymopar.com wiring diagrams for late model vehicles ? i am in need for the wire print outs for the headlight/park light/4way flasher/dash light dimmer switch pod and the wiper/wiper washer/heater fan/fog light/od. on-off switch pod for a 95 dodge grand caravan. these switch pods have a ton of wires per each, and are located on each side of the instrument cluster of said minivan. i believe the reason for so many wires is the fact each headlight gets a fuse and relay, as do each of the park/turnsignal lights. also, i believe each switch pod has wires going to the BCM for whatever reason. i would like to re-purpose these for my 1933 dodge "humpback" panel truck. thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction ! up my collection of FSM does not include any wiring schematics for '95 model year vehicles. if i have to, i will buy one if no other venue exists.

You don't want to use those switches. They are low current switches that tell the BCM to turn on/off the head lights, running lights, etc etc etc. If you want to use those switches you will have to hook each and every one of those switch functions up to it's own relay. I went through this when I swapped an 80's daytona dash into a 90's daytona. The 80's ones still used the old style high current switches so putting an old style switch in a newer style dash/wiring is doable, the other way around, not so much. Find an 80's switch, you'll be happier.

i was planning to use a bus bar and use the switch to the ground lug on a relay for the function necessary. i have found a couple of diagrams that gave me a couple of wire colors and where they go, but not the whole switch detail. i "think" not all switch wires will be needed to function as there will not be a pcm or bcm involved, but i will be using a pdc/fuse panel for the main connection/distribution area. can you add anything you think i may have missed ? i am using other late style switches for the window and lock motors, but they are newer year switches and i have the print outs for them. i plan to wire them the same. am i some what correct in my thinking that 94-95 diagrams would be the same ?

I do have a couple 90's FSM's but no caravan ones.

If you're ok with using a separate relay for every function, it'll work for you. I think you're going to end up using every single wire, I know I had to when I did that dash swap. I would imagine all the second gen caravans are the same.

thanks. i'll do some more searching. i'm planning on doing some low voltage [3v or so] probing to see what i can discover. i think i'll be ok with that low of a dose. i hope !
