RX-7 Light/ Clock Cluster Wiring

Hello, I have a RX-7 light / clock cluster and need a wiring diagram, because I'm making a custom dash and don't have any factory wiring (so I also need what voltage is supposed to be going to them, no idea if its 12v or some other voltage). On the back of the cluster is stamped "AFB02" then under that in smaller letters is "5L26F". This is supposed to be a '86-'91 light clock cluster, so the seller said. Its the kind with black symbols on a lit face (I understand later ones have a black face with lit symbols, reverse of this one). I read somewhere that means this is an S4 cluster? Not sure of this... So does anyone have a wiring diagram for the pinout on this cluster with voltages and which pin activates which light? I can name all the symbols on the face if that will help.
Thanks very much!

The ones with the lit squares with black symbols are from '86-'87 cars. '88s and S5s ('89-'91) had the opposite (only the symbol lights up red/orange).

Wiring is part of the FSM, which is available through one of the links in the 2nd gen FAQ sticky at the top of this section.

Thank you for identifying the year of the cluster. I looked here in the '86-'92 sticky but could not find the wiring diagram in the electrical post. Can you link me to where the cluster wiring information is? The other stickies didn't seem to have wiring information. I tried searching for "86 87 cluster wiring" in the forum search bar but didn't find anything yet. Also this "FSM" abbreviation confuses me, I haven't seen it spelled out anywhere, just that things are "in FSM".
Thank you!

Thanks very much! I was thinking there would be a picture, sorry I did not notice that earlier.

Need help identifying the question areas...
I also don't know if everything else is correct. I did not see any voltages listed for the pins anywhere, so I assume its +12v except for the dimmer. There was also no letter for the blank or "stop" indicators and I'm not sure if the cluster in the diagram is arranged the same way because it is not mapped at all like the physical cluster. The picture of the block is also very bad quality and it looks like there is a second "Q" after the keyed slot, I don't really know if its Q or something else.
I tried to label as much as possible by looking at the diagram, but there was some things I could not read or did not match. I want to be sure especially of voltages first so I don't fry anything. I asked in the first post if anyone knew the voltage for the cluster and that has yet to be confirmed...
The picture below is how my cluster is set up, and the diagram was this one: (link - RX7 cluster)
Any help on this would be appreciated! Thanks!

Use this link for an S4 wiring diagrams if needed. The "Stop" light is an S4 feature I believe found on the S4 wiring version).
