ARB RD-90 Install Question

I picked up a front diff with a lightly used ARB locker but the guy did not send the manual. Looks straight forward except one thing. In the attachment, it shows the switch wire harness with two wires that are pig-tailed out (red with yellow stripe and blue with white stripe).

I am thinking these are for the little blue lights in the switches but don't know for sure. Can anyone confirm what these wires do? I am also going to try and blow in a call to ARB USA but don't know how they handle support for 'used' buys.

Thanks.

ARB is very helpful, I e-mailed and asked for a new ARB bull bar sticker badge for the front and they mailed me a new one to put on my bull bar since old one was old and pealing and had paint all over it from past repaintings :}

Page 37 has the wiring diagrams. But the red-yellow is for ignition and blue and white is for dash illumination

Yes they are. Emailed them and they responded with the following:

Red with yellow stripe goes to a 12V ignition source and the Blue with white goes to dash illumination. The red/yellow signals the relay that turns on the whole system and the blue/white allows the switches to illuminate with the dash gauges at night.
Sweet.
