The little Yoda that could...
Specs. 1986 Toyota Xtracab DLX 4WD 22R Stock carburetor 5 speed G54 transmission. 193K odo. All stock and original engine and drivetrain.
I have several issues and I'm hoping the yota tech community can help me out.
First problem I want to address is fixing my reverse lights and 4WD indicator light. The switch on the side of the transmission case has wire that are broken and I cannot find the information on where they go. Where are those wires supposed to connect?

Option A) drive it until it stops working and then deal with towing it home and fixing it
Option B) fix it before you get stranded. You need a clutch kit. Clutch, pilot bearing, throw out bearing, and you may as well do the master / slave. Buy Aisin, it's OEM and very affordable on rockauto.com

I'm still not getting the info I need to rewire everything back to factory specs. I have wires coming out of the switch and I need to know where they go?? EXAMPLE... (One wire goes to relay located "here" and then going to "fuse" here and then to battery) Second wire goes to "ground" here...etc.

I have three plugs in the location on your truck. The two that you have plus an extra one.
Three wires red coming out of the switch on the teams case. One red. One red/yellow stripe. One black.
The "extra" third plug, which is female, has only one red/yellow stripe wire attached.
The other plug, which is male, has two wires. One being red and the other being red/white stripe.

I'm trying to figure out what each plug is for. And then to ultimately fix everything. I want to fully restore my truck to original stock condition with OEM parts with minor exceptions of course.
I have rewired the switch coming out of the transmission case back to its corresponding plug. Plugged it in and BOOM! I have reverse lights now. The two wires on the switch are RED and RED/WHITE STRIPE.
Plug is also same colors so it made it obvious as to which wire belonged.
So so my question now is... What are the other two plugs for? The plug that is not attached to the reverse plug was connected to a plug with only one RED/RED YELLOW STRIPE wire coming from it.
The he plug that is attached to the reverse plug is empty.
