'70 factory six

has anyone made a drawing of the rear light wiring? I have the Zapf schematic but it's hard to read. And the two sides are not symmetric/the same. I may have a short to ground, perhaps it the plastic box bulb holder. I am hoping someone has a diagram of which wire goes to each terminal which connects to each bulb.

in the past, car was hit in right rear. the holder is newer. they may have made a mistake. it all worked until a week ago. now it blows fuses and i have no brake or turn signal lights in rear.

thanks in advance
