So is a multi meter.

The wire color thing was aggravating. Orange at right front signal, light blue at the rear and neither of those colors were in the headlight bucket. Used my Beta MM with the sooper dooper pointy probes and found the white/red wire from the turn signal switch that was the one I needed. On the other side of the plug, the wire was gray/green. Not a lot of room in the rats nest to work, plus I gotta worry missing the wire with the probe and impaling my finger.

Gave up on finding a solenoid to press the reset button. Resorted to cutting part of the back off the speedo to access the switch and soldered leads and the remote button to it. It works. Also added a plug between the remote button and the speedo so I don't have to swear at myself when I put the speedo back in.

Just waiting for the JB Weld to set.
