I have a few wiring questions regading the tailight and turn signals on my 72 CB350.

The original tailight is being replaced with a new led unit that comes with three wires.
Ground: black wire
tailight: yellow wire
brake light: red wire

Which of these wires correspond to the original harness?  (The following is my assumption)
Ground: green wire
Tailight: green wire with yellow stripe
Brake light: brown wire

As for the turn signals, the new ones I recieved are bikemaster and have two wire a black and a black with white stripe, these came with no directions so how do I know what wire goes to what or does it even matter?
Thanks,

For the taillight, as long as you get the ground wires correct, just plug the others in and see which is which (use the same bullet connectors so you can swap them around).

As for the indicators, take off the lens and look at which wire goes to the centre pin on the bulb - that one is +ve.

The brown wire is for the tail light, green / yellow is for the brake light.
+1 to Hillsy for checking +/- on the signals. But usually the black w/ white stripe is the ground.

I JUST went through this and it was the most Fed-up thing I ever heard!!!
Yellow is in fact the ground! (=green)
Red is brake. (=green/yellow)
Black is tail. (=brown)
