The wires are solid color. The second letter denotes the color of the 'Band' or insulating nipple that is just above the metal connector that fits into the bakelite block.
For instance when viewed from the front of the car, the fourth hole from the top, (or the very bottom hole) against the Inner Fender will be Black with a Yellow nipple.
The wire directly above it will be Green with a White nipple. These two wires go to left hand parking light. The bands or nipples will be covered in crud and will have to be cleaned to find their original colors.
