Bronco II warning light

I have put a 1988 bronco II V6 in my MGA 30 years ago and am currently rewiring car and engine I could not find an aftermarket engine harness so am currently rebuilding the old one. When i hoked up the engine warning light someone told me to put a resister across the wires of the bulb. Like a idiot I cut the wires and do not know where they connect in the ignition circuit Does someone know where to tie this light in with the resistor The resistor is a 5110 ohm and i solder a between the two leads going to the check engine light any help on why i did this would help a lot
Thanks for your help Duncan

If you don't get an answer soon...

BaldExpDvr,

If you don't get an answer soon here on this forum....consider joining FaceBook and joining the Bronco II groups there. I have seen many answers to deeper questions such as this one. I think because there are enthusiast that own more than 1 B2 and some of members have striped down more than 1. I have seen several ignition and wiring related questions. Good Luck!
