Peter,
If you haven't already I'd strongly suggest getting the '70 wiring
diagram in the Wiki section of 311s.org and getting it printed and
laminated as large as you can. Jim did an outstanding job of
reproducing this thing in color. The larger you can get it printed,
the better, IMO. I think Staples charged me less that $5 for 11 x 17,
around $20 for 24 x 36.
Trace every wire. Even if the colors aren't the same you should be
able to trace point to point. Unless you've pulled wires out of the
molded plastic connectors you should be okay there. Even as simple as
the electrical systems are on these cars a good diagram is is a
tremendous help.
HTH,
Ron
