Wiring of front blinkers

Hey,
I was curious if someone could do me a favor. I need to know how the wiring is run on the front blinkers.

Basically the front blinker (the one with the big bulb) Has three wires coming off of it, two blacks and a red.

The Side blinker (Smaller bulb respectivly) has two, red and black.

Can anyone tell me where these run to? Is one of the black wires on the front blinker going to run to the black wire on the side blinker? Right now I have no blinkers and would really appreciate it.

Also where these connect to on the wiring harness would be great to.

Thanks as always,
SuDZ

Do your indicators on dash light up? Do your rear turn signals light up? Black wire is most likely the ground. I don't have my haynes manual on me at the moment. If none of turn signals are lighting up at all I would assume its the switch/relay. Its located under the steering wheel behind the dash on the right hand side. Also check the fuse.

Someone going for my clears decided that since the way I had them on there was preventing them from removing the clears, that they would instead smash the way through the clears (I am assuming with a hammer from the looks) and then just cut the wiring on me.

Due to me having previous altered the wiring for a back and forth blinking on the lights this meant that it left me a bit confused as far as how it was before since I sort of just did it by playing around.

So I am just looking to get them back to stock. Right now though nothing works, front back etc. Which, now that I think of it , the wiring could have crossed when they were exposed making Batxel's point of replacing the relay/flasher a good idea.

The Z is still going, I wasn't able to get it on the road this summer but it might be for the better, now over the winter I can add to it, suspension upgrades , headers updrade, electrical upgrades and more because of the extra time.

I pop in here every now and then but had left for a few different reasons in the past, I might start hanging out a bit more. Definantly a lot of the people have changed here but for the most part the vibes still seem the same. For example on another thread I saw Sprint busting on a bunch of people, that is ONE thing you can always count on.

The lights both have 2 wires, the blinker has agreen and black while the sidemarker has black and red/blue I believe. Black is ground while the colored ones are power. The wires shouls run into the relay box.
