Default 72 Auto downshift control switch
Hello Gents!

I am trying to figured out what wires attach to the downshift switch on the gas pedal and also at the trans. I have a green wire that seems to fit at the trans switch but it does not appear to match up to the harness with a corresponding color. Any ideas or thoughts? I’ve referenced my wiring schematic and it’s not very clear... or maybe I'm missing something.

Car is a 72 coupe, small block auto.

Thanks!
