Hello there, i hope you can help me because my mechanic and i are kinda out of options here. I love the car since i bought it 2 years ago.
He told me many electrical wires are in really bad shape and i had the experience on my own already. The console dimmer never worked. The seatbelt warning sometimes worked, sometimes not, same for the "left key in lock and door open" warning.
I knew the wiring is bad and the isolation is rotting and falling apart.
However ,i never ended stranded on the side of the road.
I went to my car guy, (he maintains a lot VW LT engines) for a timing belt change. And he said, well the wiring is bad, we spoke about it in the past and i said, go for it.
Here's the problem. somewhere something is shorted, the car is 35 years old, there are "strange unexpected wires, cut wires hanging around. We put in the key and turn to ON, the whole dash turns on and doesnt turn off.We plan to pull the dashboard out already. We desperately need a wire diagram, but i can't find any for my Model. He said he wants to repair and restore my wiring especially since wires are hanging around without intact insulation and might ground on the car chassis
I digged through the internet but there isn't much fanservice in particular for the diesel. I found alot for Volvo engines but that Volkswagen engine is kind of dismissed by the community.
1984 244 D24 Diesel, but i believe it's a 1983 Modell since it has more chrome then later models.

Hope you guys can help and thanks
