Default Power Tailgate Release (non-pulldown)

Hey guys,

I recently bought a 1985 Camaro and one of the things I'm trying to fix is the power tailgate release. It is the non-pulldown type since the motor in the back does not have any of the pull cables. I pulled off the top of the center console and none of the wiring is actually connected to anything. There was a relay plugged into a connector but I bench tested it and it is broken. Besides the relay, the slider switch isn't plugged into anything and the main power wire leading to a plug is not connected to anything. Does anybody have pictures or diagrams (or both) of how it is all supposed to be connected? Most of the information I have found is for the pulldown style or just not what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance

I can see value in a heavy duty if you’re hooking up a gooseneck or fifth wheel by yourself. Not life changing value, but sosme added convenience for sure.
