I need help finding out what wire goes to the high beam indicator light. I have the diagram that shows what colored wire goes to what, but I have found out that my wires have faded and some of them don't match to the list. I have white wires that have no strip on them, faded away. Everything else is working, all the lights come on and flash. Turn signals work, one stupid question I have is there only one turn signal light for left, and right ?

It's originally a white wire with a blue tracer.. and would not have had a female spade. That wire terminates inside of a single metal bulb holder (which in turn gets grounded by the metal gauge casing when installed).

You didn't mention what year, but that wire either originates at the High beam / Low beam combo relay (early cars) or at the #1 fuse spot (on later cars).

ps - the above info may be year specific as I see that the paper diagram you've pictured shows #9 on the center gauge as being the hi-beam indicator light and it has a two-prong plastic bulb holder.
