Default Need help please

Well, I did it.
I think I broke a wire when installing a chrome clutch bracket or master cylinder. None looks pinched, but all was working great before I did the big "upgrade".
Now my horn, brake light, and turn signals do not work at all, even when pushing-pulling or twisting on the wires.
Is there a particular wire that can cause all 3 problems, or have I broke more than one? If more than one does anybody have a clue?
Service manual on the way, but I want to ride tomorrow. Can anyone send me a scan of the handlebar wiring schematic?
Thanks in advance.
Rick

P.S. It is a 2007 Electra Glide Ultra.

Pull it apart and verify any damage. Also check all the fuses. I don`t think the brake lamp circuit feeds to the left handle bar switch pod...?

Thanks to everyone who contacted me on this problem.
I really appreciate the diagram also.
I found that I had cut the orange w/ white stripe wire and in the process blew a fuse behind the left side cover.
The wires insulation looked fine to the naked eye, but was split length wise and shorted against the clutch clamp blowing the fuse.
I had to run it down with a meter to find it, but after a quick solder splice, some heat shrink, and a new fuse, all is well.
Thanks again to everyone.
Rick

Glad you are now good to go. Did you figure out how it happened? Meaning did you pinch it, causing the cut, or did you actually cut it?
