Pete,
Two of the four wires are for the park/neutral safety switch and the other two are for the back-up light switch. I am away from my wiring diagrams but believe red with blue stripe is the park/neutral safety. You can check this by placing the trans in park and checking continuity. Typically the park/neutral switch is wired in series with the "start" terminal of the starter solenoid. Hopefully another member can confirm the wire colors for you.
Good Luck,
Roger Carter
