well, hmm, the two to the solenoid is for the charging gage in the cab, the other, id have to look at my truck to tell you, its dark and i don't have a drop light so its a no go there, i would guess its some type of power return? i've never heard of this,but alas i don't have the repair manual so i'm guessing here without eyeballing the wires first

Large black/red-stripe goes to soleniod/battery connection
Orange/light blue-stripe goes to "F" on regulator
If you have an "alt" light, white/black-stripe goes to "S" on regulator and also can go to the electric choke/carb (optional)
If you have ammeter white/black-stripe goes to choke only
