You need to do some "stuff"

1...Wander over to MyMopar and download the 72 Plymouth service manual, which is FREE Also download from the wiring section, the 2 page aftermarket wiring diagram. These are not always as detailed or as accurate, but can be easier to follow

2...If you do not have, get yourself a basic multimeter and a 12V test lamp, and either some alligator clip jumper wires or at least alligator clips to make a couple.
