I'm 2 railing this engine:http://mthtrains.com/content/20-20294-2

It's a SD45 w/ PS3. I unplugged several  connectors to get the shell off. I thought I had them labeled correctly. When re-assembling, I noticed an extra connector? I need to know which wire connects to the rooftop beacon? There's a plug with purple and black and another with purple and green.

 It looks like the black wire goes to the left end of the 32 wire harness in the second picture. 

 I have about seven connectors total and the blue is for the headlight, two black are for the couplers I removed, the markers appear to go to the yellow plugs and one is on the front board, and then these two whites?

Thanks G!

There wasn't any markings so I added some. I only saw one white plug when I was taking it apart. Somehow a second one appeared! I was afraid of frying something.

 I have two more engines on deck for 2 railing. I didn't notice they were both PS2. I figured I'd take them apart to see how the wiring was done.

 It goes to the other plug with the green and purple. I don't know what the black wired one goes to now? Must be an extra.
