Some wires i cant figure

Ok I have a coulple wires I cant figure out. They are not cut and are in plugs

1. a long black w/ wht stripe. It comes from the wire buldle behind the fuel box and has a mesh coating at the end. First I though was a ground wire, but it has power. ( maybe a seat belt warning wire ? )

2 a flat two wire plug with one Green wire and one Blue wire. These wires are kind thick

3 a more sguare plug with Purple wire and a yellow wire. Normal thinkness of wires.

Anybody have any ideas what they go to, I have studied the diagrams I have and cant seam to find them. Other than these wires nothing has been cut and I getting them straightened out. Cant figure out my temp gauge, has power coming from it and got a new sensor and hooked it up but still not working.

Im gonna try and post some pics of thses wires

Re: Some wires i cant figure

Picture # 2 with the green and blue wire is your back up light wires the back up light switch is located on top of the stearing column right at your firewall.

Picture #3 looks like it might be the wiring that goes to the cruise control brake switch??

Not sure but picture #1 might be to your dome light but I'm guessing here.

Pic number one would be your seat belt buzzer. I just removed mine recently.

I think the ones in pic #3 are your wires for neutral saftey. They should plug into the same switch as the back up light plug on top of the column.

Re: Some wires i cant figure

Well as I tool the interior apart today, I found that the steering column has been replaced and it came from a 90 suburban, I know that because it says 90 suburban in that wrecking yard paint. So the reverse light switch is not there. So back to the drawing board.
