Orange and white wires are the after market colors actually... the real original ones are red and white and orange.

Pretty much there is a three prong plug with only two of the sockets used... it plugs to the buzzer. The single white wire has a plug on it that slips onto the stud on the back of the metal case of the cluster. The other single wire with the fuse connection plugs into the fuse box... to the unfused postion from what I have seen.

The white single wire goes to the stud on back of dash panel... it has the only style plug that will fir it.
