Well, I'm back from my camping trip and ready to get at'er. Printed the diagrams and picking up a 'meter tonight.
Thanks for the replies and yeah, I'll disconnect the negative terminal this time lol!
After reading some of the related posts on this, I thought I'd post my error...
During replacement of my relay switch, I failed to disconnect my batteries prior to removal of the old switch. Voila! smoke. I installed the new GP switch and now it doesn't cycle, click, nothing. No 'wait' light...

I found this bit of history online, Interesting vehicle based on a Suburban named the defender, then changed to the Gazelle, built by Stutz Motorcar Company back in '84.
When I bought my truck, the guy said he has one for me but he has to dig it out. I should refresh his memory, I like to have it. I have the paperback owners manual but the repair manual would be nice.
