I posted this a few years ago but I see in my original posts that it was posted via a hosting site that is no longer working, so for anyone that may need it here it is again.
This is an enhanced image of pentax original.

Thanks.
This is a called a 'jungle' diagram as you also see them for cars.

The diagram is part of the following service manual:

Several Pentax service manuals can be found here:
Pentax Manuals

The manual for the ME is one of them.

If you make a comparison then you will see that the one I have supplied has additional information.

Yes, that's true, in the original diagram are some wires missing.
What is still missing I think is a return to ground from the Hot Shoe (J204), in the same way as indicated for the battery.
