wire harness questions

was looking at the wire harness tonight (California 1976)

right in the middle of the ends that go into the horns, is two wires - sticking out of the harness - and taped off. One is yellow and green. the other is pink.

Also, right next to the master cylinder - again sticking out of the wire harness and taped off - is three white wires and on white & pink wire.

All these have ends and seem to have been there from the factory - certainly I didn't tape them off.

I have looked and looked at the wiring diagrams in Bentley & Haynes and can find no evidence.

Any ideas? I'm trying to figure out if any of these are useable for accessory lights.

thanks all

I think maybe that pink one is the resistor wire for you coil.

On my car (79 fed) the resistor wire is pink and pokes out by the MC and by the radiator.
