Default turn signal wires

Well I finally got my bike back together with all the new powdercoat anyways I got 2 minor probs. The front left turn signal does not "run" as in the running light. But it does blink for left turn, didn't check to see if the emergency blinker works too. And the back right signal does jack squat. Lol. The back is an easy enough fix, but which wire on the front is for the running light? Bike is 06 street bob

A factory service manual will shed the light you seek, it has the wiring schematics... wake up & buy one!
