A little help with turn signal/wiper switch wires, please?
 
I had to replace the bearings in my steering column, which took 2 days from start to finish in 90-100F heat. Tonight i finished, but the right turn signal would blink fast when the steering wheel was tilted downward, but not up. I found a wire that was pulling out of the connector at the switch assembly when the steering wheel was tilted downward. I removed the switch assembly to snap the wire and its metal connector back into the harness, but more wires fell out! I disconnected the battery after 2 of the wires touched.

I dont know which holes to put the wires back into in the grey connector. If someone would generously take a photo of the back of the grey plastic connectors, i would be very thankful for your help.

Here is a poor cell phone picture of my problem.

Here's the pinout from my 97 manual, which should be the same as your 99.

Alloro,

Thank you very much! Its fixed now. The truck is a whole new machine with the rebuilt steering column. It feels great to know theres someone here who will bail you out, haha.
