All ground wires are black. Some may have a white stripe.

Does it only do it when the high beams are on? I just found my problem today... my lights / radio / ect were shutting off if my highs were on but not when the lows were on. It turned out to be the high beam indicator is free floating arround and grounding out.

i have the print for that if you need it. it is most likely the grounds at the dash support,(3 total i think) left of the steering column.
