Ted,

If you don't have a wiring diagram for your car and per your post it
looks like it is a 65 Coronet check this site:

http://www.mymopar.com/60to65_wiring.htm

Diagram "B" shows the ballast resistor and the 4 wires attached to
it.

This is a nice site, it has a nice selection of wiring diagrams for
our cars.
