Howdy folks,

Ever since I switched out the ignition switch on my car, my stereo pauses whenever I hit the turn signals. The manual says that there is one cable to the back of the ignition switch and one big plug. Got those on. But I noticed that there was another stray cable sitting there. It is colored green and is coming from a taped up loom with a black colored wire. The black one looks like a ground, but where does the green one go?

It sits very close to the switch ... does it connect there? I've looked at a lot of the wiring diagrams, and can't find it anywhere. Could it be linked to the (crappy) alarm that's in there?

Take a look at the schematics on my tech pages. They should help you figure out what you are looking at.

The only pure green wire is a stop lamp wire, at least for the stock harness. It runs from the stop lamp switch (brake pedal) up into the turn signal switch. Hmmm...suspicious, don't you think?
