Hi everyone :)

I'm hoping someone can help me out because I can not find a wiring diagram for my L1501DT's switch anywhere.
All of the wiring diagrams I have seen so far (L185, L235) have a different number and orientation of connectors.

I've attached a photo of the 6 connectors (two are bridged...) as they are on the back of the key barrel (the barrel is upright in the photo).

I basically need to know what wires go where.... I dont think colours will help as there are two yellows, a red, a red/white, a white and a red that are joined together.
The key positions are:
1. off
2. on
3. on / high beam lights
4. on / low beam lights

The two bridged connectors have a 'B' stamped next to them, and going clockwise from the 'B', there is L1, T, IG, and L2.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide me!

B is obvious, battery. L1 AND L2 are lights, ig means ignition and if the switch
dont have a start position , this goes to a start button. T goes to the hour meter and position lamps, work lamps, ect
