82 KZ440 Headlight Bucket wiring Issues

So recently I acquired an 82 KZ 440 that had some electrical issues (slow turn signals, and the horn and high beams were not functioning ). It looks like the previous owner had connected some after market turn signals and had botched most of the wiring. I'm attempting to restore everything to its original state with little luck even with a wiring diagram. If someone could point out what wire goes where or post a photo of their own wiring I would be incredibly appreciative.

I believe the yellow/black wire is ground and the white/blue wire is for accessories, although I can't seem to find white/blue on the diagram. You can leave the white/blue unconnected, but make sure it doesn't short out against anything. (Wrap with tape.)

That broken red/black wire going to the headlight bulb should go to that unconnected red/black wire. That powers your high-beam.
There might be another red/black wire. That also gets connected to the other two red/black wires to power the high-beam indicator in the dash.

Red/yellow powers the low-beam.

Black/yellow is ground.

Is the headlight dangling from the wiring?

ps: it helps to mention exactly what 440 it is.
