'74 Spider in need of a map!

I just bought a beautiful '74 Spider - the only problem is the fan switch was apparently not working and the previous owner pulled every single wire/bulb out of the center console! I have searched everywhere on the web for a wiring diagram as I got nothing with the car. I was thrilled to see all the diagrams here but nothing for a '74 Spider. Is there a hero out there?!

Another simple question; I hope. How is the headlight control supposed to work? Mine appears to do this but I may have fuse/bulb problems:

1) I can rotate the knob to 3 positions. 2 of the positions do nothing, the last turns the lights on.
2) When the above switch is in the 2 positions that do nothing, I can push the knob in toward the steering console and the lights come on as I keep holding it in. These appear to still be the low lights.
3) When the lights are in the 3rd position where they stay on, I can move the control down and it appears that the right light goes to high beam but the left goes out completely.

Am I on the right track (minus a fuse or blub) or is this just random. It does seem that it does not always work as above but i have only been playing with the car for a day.
