Electrical woes

[Dream240]

Okay, I found my vaccum problem, I forgot to hook up one of the swirl control valve solenoid hoses..... duh.

My next problem, I have a circuit crossing somewhere. Whenever I push the brake pedal while the car is running, the rear window de-fogger switch lights up and the idle slows a little. Also strangely enough, it only does this when the hatch is closed. When the hatch is open, nothing!!! Definitely wierd.

I'm in the process of checking all the grounds, but if anyone has had a similar problem some tips would be helpful.

Also this all started after I replaced my interior carpet and pulled out the dash and support beam, thus disconnecting almost all the interior plugs to get it out. And I cut out the connectors for the old motor antennae, replaced it with a S2000 antennae. Also connected the S14 seatbelt connector to my S13 harness for the light to work, only to find that since I have manual seatbelts and no auto computer.... the light still doesn't work. Oh well....gonna have to do some splicing.

Any tips guys? thanks in advance.
