Nice looking ride.

I can't imagine the electrical issues being to much for this crowd.

Brian.

Thanks!

Could somebody with an 87 or 88 send me a picture of the CE panel connecter E, at the bottom of the panel? I need to clearly see the ports in bottom left and middle right of the connector. Both of mine are cut and it isn't clear what they should be wired to, unless it is to each other. Is there a list of what each connector is for? Hans sent me the wiring schematics, but I am still trying to figure them out.

Does anybody have an 87 or 88 fuse panel for sale?

Made some progress over the weekend:

Confirmed power to both window motors in each door, when switch is pressed. Opened up one window motor and it's corroded. I am assuming both are shot, so ordered 2 replacements.

Passenger side outer door handle is broken inside, ordered replacement handle assembly.

Ordered replacement fuse panel, rather than trying to replace the damaged fuse section for 21-25.

Removed front seats and sent for repair and re-dye.

Pulled center console, removed/relocated rear ac controls, and fitted a double-din Android touchscreen.

Wheels are now black. Used PlastiDip to test durability and make it easier to return to silver.

Next up:

Pull dash pod for LED upgrade and check connections for temp gauge and fuel gauge.
Pull cat section and rear muffler for reference for x-pipe and RMB. Not sure which I'll go with yet, or both.

I did initial troubleshooting of inoperative A/C, will continue after fuse block is replaced.

Why would I not have an oxygen sensor? I don't recall seeing the plug down by the CE panel and the hole in the floor/tunnel area where it should be coming up from the cats is sealed, looks like from the factory.

Were you still looking for a trunk matt?

I am, but I need cashmere and that one on EBay is as rough as the one I already have. I am contemplating buying the entire carpet set and just doing it all while the seats are out being reconditioned.

I think I found the source of the electrical damage to my CE panel and connectors. Rear dome light.

I need a big favor from someone today. I'm ready to start putting the car back together, including new CE panel, but I need to fix the wiring for CE connector E. It has broken wires in 2 locations. In the picture, I have circled the visible one and pointed a black arrow at the other, at the bottom left of the connector, behind the other wires. Could someone with an 87 or 88 please trace these 2 wires and tell me where they should connect?
