Question Is it me, or am I just not seeing it?

I'm trying to find the CAT and EGR dummy lights and relays on the electrical diagrams ('75 2.0L) but can't seem to find them? Are they not there?I would like to get the lights on my dash to work (even though the CAT and EGR systems are not working).

The lights are chained together with a hot wire, and both lights turn on if I have the key on and ground out the light, so I'm assuming they each have their own ground wire coming from a relay.

Both lights are missing the second wire (ground) connections on them, I can't seem to find them under the dash.

The 75-76 cars have a plastic gauge cluster frame...no ground possible through the frame.

Maybe the ground wire has just been removed?

Yes they have been removed, I'm just trying to locate the original wires. I'll start my behind the dashboard search again I guess.

I was also just wondering if they showed in the Haynes manual and I just couldn't see it. But I don't think they are included.
