Could someone describe the wiring in my 1992 Lumina 3.1 Sedan?

I can't make heads or tails of the wiring diagram at the back of the Haynes manual. I can read "real" schematics, but they ain't that.

If someone could scribble a rough sketch of the actual wiring, w/location of switches, fusible links, bulbs, relays and all, it would be great. Where to find this harness, how this one is routed etc.

A tall order perhaps, but there are lots of brains on here I'm sure.

The problem - 2 of my brake lights (the bulbs closest to the clear lense, that says "Chevrolet") won't light up when I depress the brakes. I checked ALL of the fuses, under the dash and under the hood, w/a continuity tester and they all seemed to check out. I don't know how to test relays (I'll try and look that up). All the bulbs work (although I need to check one that I replaced, the larger bulbous type (not a the smaller 194 type) on the corner of the back, for braking I guess. It would blow out, probably will again (indicates a short somewhere necessarily?). One of my rear windows won't work (power). The door locks also don't work. You have to lean on the right signal to make it work. I think I dropped something in the cig lighter, can't get 12v out of there. Just to be clear and complete.

I wish there were common sense circuit diagrams/descriptions/explanations of every car out there. It would be an interesting project. For the world

And if anyone is able to scribble that out, in Paint say, and wants to send it to me, use:

generalordertwentyfour(at)gmail(dot)com, not my registered e-mail. It's flaking out (I sense a trend here!). Thanks.

You could try the diagrams at autozone.com, repair guides, regsiter and go the wiring diagrams/chassis electrical.
