What a piece of engineering.
If you want to "fix" it do the following:
1 - Remove the white wire from the GP relay
2 - reconnect the light blue wires - ground
3 - reconnect the pink wires - 12v power that is always on with the key
4 - replace the GP relay with a new unit. Yours is more than likely is burnt out by having 24v applied to it (may be good, will have to test)
5 - move the white wire to the small post with the light blue ground wire
6 - move the green wire to the mounting screw for the relay. This assumes that the wire goes to one of the terminals on the manual switch
The switch will now manually control the relay
7 - remove second green wire from manual switch. Assumes it goes to the wait light
8 - disconnect both green wires at wait light (where does the second green wire go?)
9 - reconnect the pink wires
10 - find the cut blu wire and reconnect blue wires
11 - replace burned out light bulbs - type 168 (you may have many burnt bulbs because of the 24v feeding thru the system)
When you have yor wiring guru work on the truck, make sure he consults the wiring diagrams before he starts hacking up the wiring more because he doesn't understand the system
I had to fix a friends M1009 a couple of weeks ago. His truck was broken into and the batteries stolen. They cut the battery leads so they had to be replaced. He had his car repair shop work on the batteries. They hacked it and rewired it back to 12v without making the proper changes. Also put in some small civvy batteries and used zip ties to make the bentup battery hold downs fit. They are professionals.
