Discrepancy between wiring diagram SL-37 and mine and other cars?

[Zithlord]

Please look at my fusebox layout. I have found that my car and other 71S cars have a mirrored layout compared to factory workshop wiring diagram. There are also wires placed at other fuses and as an example the fog wires on the left side of fuse 8 (fusebox II) are missing in the factory diagram. Other differences are noted in the attached fusebox layout. Please comment.

The "mirrored" layout was also present in the SWB wiring diagram, not a big deal as long as you identify the circuit by the wires.

I don't understand the layout of the columns, can you label them? Like "Diagram" "Car" or something like that? Just looking at the SL35 and your Fusebox II I don't see anything unusual for the first couple rows.

I don't understand the layout of the columns

The first diagram is for fusebox I. That fusebox has 10 fuses. My diagram shows which wires(and color) that enter on the left side and which wires enter the right side of the fuse. There are 10 fuses, and the column shows which function and amp each fuse has. Its supposed to replicate the exact layout of my fusebox(like if I had taken a picture of it. The same apply for fusebox II. What about fusebox II, fuse 2. In my car and others the white blue wire is attached to fuse 2 left, not fuse 1 left as shown in the factory diagram.

Hope that explanation helps.

BTW if you look at fusebox I, fuse 7, I can not find a red/green wire for the fuelpump? anywhere. The wires in position 7 right side in the picture below is red/black and red with grey dots(I guess this is for the fuel pump?) The car ran fine before dismanteling.....

All wires look factory and had yellow unbroken paint on the screws.

Attached are a picture from before dismanteling.

John, the white/blue wire in question just goes to the high beam indicator, so it doesn't matter whether it's on fuse 1 or 2, they both are high beam circuits.
