Two wires, no idea
69, left headlight area, these 2 wires are taped in with the headlight pigtail. This is the first time I've been in the headlight area, they worked perfectly, so if it works, don't fix it.
Any way, I've looked on the interwebs, and can't find anything. I've also searched here, and can't find anything. The wires that cut clean are yellow with a green tracer, the other is black.
Anybody have an idea what they are? I can only think they would be the headlight door warning light. But, I've been wrong before. Thanks

Do you have a wiring diagram???
I have to assume you are referring to the black wire with the red stripe on it....and the other is the wire that has red paint on it???
Then YES..it is for the warning switch.
The wire that has the terminal crimped on it...I assume goes in the headlight wiring connector??? and has come out.

You might be correct that the wires are for the 'Headlamp Warning Light'.
Does the warning light ever go on as the headlights open?

Thank you Alan. It took me a second to get oriented, I did the drivers side and this is the passenger side 
That's what they are. Some bubba couldn't fix them before me and cut them off. Thanks Bubba, one more thing of yours to fix now.....
