Do you have the wiring schematic for the 65? If so you can use a multimeter to shoot the wires on the column to see which ones have continuity between wires when you use the turn signal. Remember there is a single power wire for both turn signals. To find the horn contact the black lead (-)to the body of the steering column, red lead to the remaining wires and press the horn. The flasher switch will have a single lead that is the power wire. It uses the existing turn signal wires to flash both sides. Ignition wire are the same deal as the turn signals. I hope this helps more then confuses.

Wow I was way off. Sorry about that. I'm going to flog myself now.

I wouldn't have thought there'd be that many wires running out of the column.

Mark what is really way cool, about halfway through that self flogging, start feeling a little sorry for yourself, and ask the wife to finish it for you.

Not so fast John. Have pity on the poor guy.
I rather suspect something on the order of "30 lashes with a wet noodle" or some other punishment equally severe.
