    Looking at the nice drawing that Ron Boltz did, it appears that the wire is number "15" which goes to connector "F". Now if the number tag has been taken off of the wire, that could be an issue that will have to be sorted out.

    Note: This is with the original distribution box, not the solid state turn signal. It may be the same and I will try to look at that now.

    EDIT: same wire with both...

    I had an issue with getting my headlights to work. Until I found the loose connection. This loose connection could only be seen by removing the high beam switch from the floorboard. I just pressed the connector back onto place and the headlights worked.

    I did some diagrams that id each wire and where they go, its for the turn signals with the big distribution box under the hood, not the small solid state style...if it helps:
