First, sorry for what is going to be a very basic question, but I've hit a wall with this - and the 79 Service Manual does not show wagon specific rear wiring, so I'm doubting my own reasoning here.
What is the original US light function for all four bulbs at each rear light?
I trying to make the lights original, and then afterwards make some sort of alternative connector so that I can make them euro again just by changing connector, if possible.
This is what they have done, as of todays detective work:
What is the original US light function for all four bulbs at each rear light?
- The white is B/U that is a given
- The bulb next to it is running light, stop light AND turn signal? How does the turn signal "work" - does it dim the stop light if braking, and brighten the running light if not braking? So confused.
- The two outer bulbs are just running lights, with no stop and/or turn - or?

This is what they have done, as of todays detective work:
- They disconnected the connector to the B/U switch on the column
- They cut the white wire at the brake switch, and ran a new wire from the old white on the switch aaall the way back to where the rear body connector for the lights is.
- This new wire is connected to both Dark Green and Yellow wire to make stop lights at bulb beside the original B/U light.
- They wired the turn signal wires to each B/U light wires
- Result is no B/U light to make Euro turn signals. This passes inspection.
