Brake lights, Headlights, and fuel pump died

Howdy,

I'm trying to fix my dads dailydriver, 79' 4x2 toyota. Well the old beast been giving me trouble with the lights. One brake light didn't want to come on. I checked the bulb, it was good but no juice. Two days later the other on went out. 3 days later fuel pump goes out along with head lights.

I changed the Fuel pump relay and pump, thank god it worked.
But still no lights. After looking there all in the same part of the harness so my thoughts are there all grounding to themselves. But where?

Oh by the way I don't have the fuse identifaction cover.
Any body Have one. There the round glass ones.

checking out my wiring diagram for an early model, it looks like a wire runs off the alternator and runs to the heater brake lights and headlights, does the heater work? If I read this diagram correctly there is a white wire between the alternator and the regulator it hooks onto. Just something to check.
