Help with what exactly? If we don't know the problem, we can't help.

If you read the section at the beginning of the wiring diagrams, there is a pretty clear guide as to what means what.

The letters generally indicate wire color/wrap color, and the numbers can mean varying things depending on context.

Are you reading the diagrams from the online 88fsm or another manual?

Your headlight diagram should look like the attached jpg.

Letters like WL[F] means a White/Blue wire and it is in the [f} Front harness. The letter L represents the color Blue and the letter W is the color White.

Ea-01 is a reference designator for an electrical plug for the headlight relay. On the FSM diagrams they will show the plug seperate from the schematic and the color of the wires in that plug.

X-17 represents a connector connecting the Front harness with the Cluster switch harness (the one for the light switch).

RB[F} is a Red/Black wire in the Front harness.

Ea-01, Ea-02, Ea-03 and all the other Ea-XXXxx are plugs on relays or switches.

[Cr1] is the cluster switch harness and if you see something like [Cr1] RY that means it is a Red/Yellow wire in the cluster switch harness.

The number 10 inside a black circle is a ground location. Actually a Number in a black circle represents a ground location. The 5 ground block is located under the Tral Coils assy. The number 10 ground block is located behind your instrument cluster on the bulkhead. I've never seen nor want to ever have to see that ground block.

This jpg shows the Front harness. It is everything RED. The ENGINE harness is the Blue one.
