when replacing the ignition switch assembly, the wires came apart from the old cap (7 poles) Can you help me match the numbers and wires. Numbers: 15, P30, 15R, 50, 30, 15X, 30. The wire colors are: two solid red wires, one red with green stripes, one red with black stripes, one red with yellow stripes, one purple with white stripes, and one green with white stripes. PLEASE HELP ME MATCH THE WIRES & NUMBERS. Thanks
