I have two wires behind the hazard switch and the multi gauge with no connection. These spade lugs appear to be factory but are side lugged (wire comes in from the side)not the back. Grey w red and Brown? turn signal? They can only go were they reach and there is no spade to push them on.????? Anyone have a lead ???

If you mean flag connectors, then they should be 2 of the 3 wires that go to the fog light switch.

The third wire is a Black/ blue stripe from terminal 56 on the headlight switch.

As far as I know the Black/blue stripe is the instrument lighting.
