When you find house nuts on a vehicle, you know you're in for a treat!

Re: Warning: Picture not suitable for some!

LOL... I had the same type of mess to deal with, wire nuts and all. It looked like a 16 year old drunk kid wired it. Straightened it out though. Then I quickly became the drunk adult trying to fix it all.

Re: Warning: Picture not suitable for some!

Just did this last summer.. took me about a week ( after work a couple hours a night). I found a pair of tweezers works well to remove the clips holding the wires to the connectors.. just push it in from the front to depress the clip and yank the wire out from behind... a nice kid at pick n pull only charged me 17.99 for a full harness with all the acc. so I made 2=1... It will be a good project to learn what each wire in your truck does.. I pretty much know where each one goes now and how it was routed.. Good luck!

Shoot, all you need now is some household switches to go along with the wirenuts.

Re: Warning: Picture not suitable for some!

That’s exactly how mine looked the day I brought my truck home, the bad part was, mine was actually an EZ harness and that’s how it looked. Had to cut and re crimp and heat shrink every connection front to back.
