otherwise I need to figure out what in the heck is going on here

Ahh, yes. Your typical 'hack' aftermarket electronic accessory installation - with the usual rats-nest of wiring, crude splices and cable-ties!
A friend recently bought a used vehicle with aftermarket power-locks, anti-theft and remote-starting. Then paid a substantial sum to have it all professionally removed after it caused so many electrical malfunctions that it was virtually undriveable!
Hope your project goes better.

Happy Motoring, Mark
