Rear power problems

The rear end of my car is not getting power. My rear wiper doesn't work, my power trunk doesn't work, my rear defroster doesn't work, my trunk light doesn't work, and my left brake light works when it wants to. The guy who had the car before me did a **** poor job hacking up wires in the car. What the hell did he do to mess up the wires and how can I fix them?

CHILTON'S PUBLISHED A DECENT CAMARO REPAIR MANUAL. IT COVERS 82-92. PART # (8260) 28282. CHAPTER 6 ( CHASSIS ELECTRICAL ) HAS ALL THE WIRING DIAGRAMS FOR YOUR RIDE, WHICH BY THE WAY SOUNDS LIKE IT HAULS *** . PG. 6-43

Thanks, it does in fact haul *** . I have the Haynes 82-92 manual (and I'll add that it was the wisest purchase for my car that I've made). I'm still having some trouble pinpointing the problem though. Has this ever happened to anyone before?

On a side note: The Haynes manual kinda pisses me off because it has to generalize sometimes for all the cars made between 82-92. Is there a better manual that will focus on one model? I heard of one but if I can remember correctly it was very pricey.

Sorry to revive this thread but the power issues continue. I'm just kinda hoping that someone has some experiences with wiring woes to share and shed some light on the subject. BTW, where can I get a Helms manual? Amazon.com?
