Idiot lights harness

OK, I need some help. I want to make sure my car doesnt blow up, so I want my idiot lights to work. Problem is, the guy before me dissassembled them and took out the wiring harness. Now I have NO idea where the wiring harness for the cluster attatches to. I looked and cant find a single plug for it to attatch to. Can anyone help?

the harness is hard to see. Its way at the top of the dash. I was able to get to it barely. You need to reach up behind the gauge cluster way at the top and try to feel for the plug!

The H-01 connector (which is the connector that the idiot lights plugs into) is part of the dash harness that feeds the Climate control/Logicon, the radio, the dash speakers, and the dash lights in the glove box, and cig lighter.

The other end of the dash harness plugs into the main harness above the fuse box.

If he really removed the harness, the radio and climate control would also not work. If they still do, then chances are that he just shoved the plug up into the dash.

it depends on how much of the harness you have. the control box is the same for the blinkers and buzzer. its located behind the drivers kick panel. black box bout 6in long 4in wide and 1.5in deep. its bolted in by one 10mm bolt at the top of the box. there should or will be 3 plugs. two plugs on the bottom of the box run the blinkers and whatnot and one of the face i want to say like 16 pins that runs the gauges. both the gauge cluster and control box are known to have bad solder joints in them so good idea to redo them all with some high grade solder while apart (i use silver solder). i dont believe there is a junction in the harness between the dummy cluster and control box. hope i helped

That would be wrong.

The only two wires from the idiot light panel that even go to the CPU are the Stop warning light and the alt warning. The Harness does not directly plug into the CPU at all.
