You've got the bentley.  Check for continuity between the fpr contacts
and all the places it's contacts wires are supposed to go to, if you
can.  battery ground pulled of course.  Oh, don;t use a test light and
voltage , use a multimeter.  Don't to go sending big fat current down
some wire that has a semiconductor goofing off at the other end...

Anyway, this would be how to verify any of the wiring harness work
you've done.  Very time consuming, but just grunt work.

Re: painting, you brought it up already and it is something to be
careful of - making sure the appropriate part to part grounds stay good,
for example.  EG: on my car, the OXS is grounded through the exhaust
piping back to the head and block.  The intake manifold, acting as the
ground tie point for the ECU, is grounded to the head.  I tried to be
careful and grind paint off some of these items where necessary (that
alternator casing was a pita!).  

It's a horror show, but you may want to verify all your wiring again as
well....
