Piecing together the kz550a3

Hi guys, love this forum!
I have a KZ550 A3 that I’m having a hard time piecing the electrical together. I have tried using the Clymer manual to troubleshoot, however I’m thinking one of you might have a quicker fix. (The whole black and white print is also driving me crazy). Currently, my turn signals work but nothing else - engine is not turning over.
Attached to this post are some pictures of wires that I have no clue where they go.. pictures are taken from the right side (when sitting on bike).. its very possible that I’m altogether missing a part, however I can’t be sure due to it not being me having previously taken this apart. Any help is greatly appreciated! Let me know if you need additional pictures!

The unused terminals are for adding accessories.
white-black is pos (+) & always hot >> you can see the accessory fuse box in the pics. black-yellow is an acc ground.
Also, there should be a white-blue pos acc inside the headlight bucket as well as an acc ground there.

loudhvx has various service manuals & color wiring diagrams on his motor cycle stuff page. see links in the signature of any of his replies.
For your convenience here's a KZR page with his links. 550 mc stuff links
