If I'm not mistaken, the two black/red wires are for the reverse lights. I'll have to check my electrical diagrams for the rest.

What vehicle are we talking about here?

KJ, if you have a diagram for a '74 I'd be interested in a copy.

Thanx Eric

They're in the back of the Haynes manuals. If you're gonna do any kind of work on your trucks, a Haynes is probably the best tool to have. They're only $10-$12.

The electrical diagrams look like they're copied from a microfiche and are barely legible with the tiny text. Sorry, but there's no way they'd copy on a copier or scanner.

You can also get the shop manual from the online store which has even better diagrams.

Have these wires been cut,because there should be a flat plug on them and they just plug into another plug under the dash
