Think I might be tempted to search for a service manual for sale somewhere.... or maybe check with your local library. Or maybe a 'free trial' over at alldata.com?

Andrew, did you get this problem fixed? I have the exact same problem on my 93 Dodge 3/4 ton diesel truck. Any advice about where to start would be appreciated.

Richard.

I found the diagram below with a google search and only took a few minuets. There are more than one positive power leads to the switch.
