So I have a new to me (thanks Ted W) Tex Magna-Lite indicator it has:

Green White wire
Black White wire
Green Red wire
Green Brown wire

On the steering column I have:
two green - one I know was a ground wire for the old (farm tractor steering column indicator) - the other went into the old indicator housing
One Black wire
One Red wire
One White wire

So - first Q - is the existing wiring replaced, or OEM?
If standard - then can someone take a look and tell me the match up....
If not standard....bummer...I have to trace it all!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrr

I've found this site helpful when wiring in turn signals without having a diagram. Maybe you'll find it useful http://www.stovebolt.com/techtips/turn_signal.htm

Got it...had to take the dash panels all off. About 347 stinkbugs in there!!!

But deep down in there I traced the new wires back to the original ones. Spliced in and connected some new wires with the same color combo, wired to the correct ones on the Tex-Magna Lite and viola!!!

Blinkers working.....YAY - oh for the love of the simplicity of the British!!
