Car new to me. Cleaning up grounds, now have rear turn signals. Front signals have 2 plugs in fender well. One with three female plugs and one with 2. Light fixture has only 3 pronged male. Question is what is 2 female plug for and what wires go to male plug. ?

The wire that has 3 female connectors is to the turn signal. The one with 2 plugs goes to the side light.

On the left turn signal you should have a Brown wire (ground), a black and grey (Turn signal) and Grey/black is your parking light. Then you have a brown and a grey/black wire that run to the side marker light.

On the right turn signal you should have a Brown wire (ground), a Black/green (turn signal) and a Grey/red wire ( parking light) Then a brown and a Grey/red wire to the right side light.

Are you saying there is a male spade on the wiring? haven't seen that before. I know I deleted my side lights, but also deleted the wiring for it when I rebuilt my wiring harness.

What color is the wire to the male spade connector? I will see if I can figure out what they did.
