Rewiring car
Monday, May 08, 2006 10:19 PM
I have a 96 Cavalier 2.2L, 5 spd, a/c, no power locks or windows.

I need to rewire my complete car, the wiring in the car is really @!#$ up, does anyone have a wiring diagram from a manual or something for this car?

Snowman is right, you wouldnt believe the wiring schematics for the cavs.3-4 pages fine print of just the engines wiring system. I have access to computer software at work that I can get you a couple of diagrams, You need to tell us whats exactly wrong and why you think that you need wiring diagrams, and for what systems of the car.
Rewiring the whole car wouldnt be an option that I would recommend at all. Can You say Spaghetti.
The new cars are nothing like the old carburated ones of the past where all you need to run the engine is 6 or so wires, a few for the headlights , a few for the tail lights and a wire for the fuel guage. Rewiring them took a couple of beers and an evening.

Trust me, I know wiring... I have done a lot to my old car, digital dash is fuuuuuuun...

Anyways sorry, I shoulda been more precise, I need the wiring for the lights, all of them. I need the fuse boxes (both) diagrams.

This is what is wrong:

Parking lamps do not work in the rear, or front for that matter.
Signal lights do not work when I put the fuses back in (there were three missing)
Dash lights don't work.
And the headlights, there is only one set..., So that's not good

Also there is a bunch of random wires poking out of the dash, and tons of mickey mouse wiring under the hood for the alarm and such. I will be completely rewiring the car this weekend, I can't drive at night with no parking lamps.

Ill get some diagrams for you tomorrow, tues, of the headlights, tail, power distribution system and body control system. Im almost positive the headlights run through the body computer, Ill check. You may need a body computer.
Anyway Ill attach them to an email to you tomorrow after work..

Awesome! Thanks.

I think I fried something with the signal lights though, I took out the three fuses I put in yesterday, and the signal lights don't work still, they just stay on constantly and shut off when I cancel the signal.

I emailed you the diag that i could get on to my computer. I hope that helps a little. The pages are from a computer software company that we use at work and are copywrited thats why the name is scribbled out. Lots of luck.

Non-blinking signal lights can sometimes be attributed to a faulty blinker module.
