I'm on board with you on the lose ground, but the wiring diagrams are driving me nuts, I just cant imagine where ALL of the grounds are! I'm not a total idiot but the wiring diagrams on shbox are just Greek to me. I am rewiring the alarm now and periodically I press the pin switch and it goes off, other times it does not. I'm tryin like hell!!! Thanks for your reply!

do you have an aftermarket alarm? they can mess things up if failing or not hooked up right. had one in the 93 and it was the first thing I took out. ground for rear is under the carpet or maybe on the trunk hold down bracket

I think your better off using the factory service manual to find ground locations. may take a bit to learn the way its set up. it did for me. I was used to the old way the factory manuals was set up.

Do you know how to use the bookmarks of an Acrobat document? The copy of the service manual you can download from this site should be setup with them. The picture below should explain how to use them. Section 8 gives a written description of the ground locations beginning on page 8A-14-16. This should also give a reference for sectional view to help identify it.

I'll do some looking around and see if I can learn how to use it a little better. Thanks

I'm sorry, I forgot to mention you would have to an Acrobat Reader program to use the bookmarks.
