I'm sorting out the wiring to the front turn signals. I have the US ones (orange) rather than the Euro ones (orange/clear). There's one bulb with 2 filaments in in each receptacle. The terminals on the back of both the left and the right receptacles are BL, 31 and 57. I'm installing a new (factory) wiring harness.

I have three wires coming out of the harness in both right and left fenders. On the left side there's a brown wire, a black/white wire, and two wires together (gray/red and either gray/black or white/black). On the right side there's a brown wire, a gray/red wire, and a black/green wire. Can anyone tell me which wire goes to which terminal?

TIA

It definitely does if any of the metal bits on the rest of the assembly touch the ground part of the socket. (They do on the license plate lights, that I know for sure!) If not, it probably doesn't matter too hugely, but I would still put the ground wire on whichever terminal is connected to the side of the socket.
