Are you sure that switch is from a 97 Explorer? The wiring diagram does'nt match that color coding.

I tried this and could not find the right one. I think I have found it now, for 1991. My problem is that the diagram does not show which wires are pos or neg or the function/signal of each wire. I need to know what each wire does.
