Default Fuse Block

Hey guys wiring up my LQ9 engine fuse block for a swap into my 86 K5 Blazer. Looking for some help on figuring out where things go to get power. I know all pinks run off ignition. The rest of them is what I’m having a problem with so let me start with what I believe to be correct. •starter solenoid- hot during crank

•Crank voltage- hot during crank and run, goes to ignition relay

•stop lamp- goes to brake light switch, hot when brakes are applied

•Starter enable relay control- goes to starter relay

• Battery Positive- straight to battery

• Park, Neutral start switch- hot with ignition

• stop lamp- goes to brake light switch, hot when brakes are applied

Now what I need to know

•fuel pump relay- is this to supply power through relay or to turn relay on?

•Trailer back up lamp? Power from column shifter? Relay between?

• Park neutral position switch-?

•TCC brake switch-?

•Cruise control release, I imagine signal from brake pedal? If so how?

•Ground- why is there a ground running into fuse block? What for?

That is to trigger the relay, the power side (that runs through the relay and out to the pump) is from a fuse in the fuse box.

•Trailer back up lamp? Power from column shifter? Relay between?

Not sure

• Park neutral position switch-?

Uh not 100% sure what side of what we're talking about, but it should get power with key on only

•TCC brake switch-?

Gets a signal to pcm from brake switch

•Cruise control release, I imagine signal from brake pedal? If so how?

Brake pedal

•Ground- why is there a ground running into fuse block? What for?

Not sure



That's what I can add
