From: out of my mind; be back in 5 minutes....
Car: 1989 Firebird Formula
Engine: Internal Combustion
Transmission: Completed
Axle/Gears: ones that turn.
Under which section of the car? Engine bay? Tranny area? Rear?
Tan and green run the headlights; tan goes to the oil pressure sending unit; green to the temp sending unit; green to the horn(s); green and blue to the backup switch on a manual tranny...

as best as i can tell it runs from the engine compartment to the rear end.. kinda following the driveline.. backup switch on manual tranny sounds like the closest thing it could be, except i have an automatic tranny.. oh well.. ill evenually find out what it does..

Could it be a manual switch for the fuel pump? I just bought an 89' bird, w/ a viper alarm (what a joke) and it had something like you described.
