Thanks to Bob Sykes who realized that I had
mis-identified the Switches on the tranny, I was able
to review my wiring and now it all makes sense.  (Even
though the colors still don't match the Haynes diagram)

It seems that I was thinking that the switch in the
front of the single rail tranny was the reverse switch
as it is on the 3-rail.  But the reverse switch on the
single rail is located off the side of the shifter
housing at the rear.  With that in mind, the wiring is
as follows:
                             |------------< OD SOLENOID
               Gearbox o\    |(yel/purple)                      
               Switch  o \   |------------ o OD     
                      / \ \--------------- o Switch
                      | |     (yellow green)
                      | |                      
 to voltage  (green)  | |        (green)
 stabilizer >---------| |------------------o Reverse
 to reverse >------------------------------o Switch
  lamps                (green/brown)

Regards,
Joe
