Please Help with Wiring to Power Antenna -- Thanks! 700 1986

Just acquired a 1986 740 Turbo Wagon, fixed several items with the great help from the FAQ's on this board, but have one other item for which I need a little help. I replaced the broken power antenna mast and gearing, but someone has cut the wires going to the solenoid on the antenna motor, and I cannot find the other end to reconnect them! I have have another wire connection coming out of the wiring harness which goes to the dashboard antenna switch (black and green w/red tracer). And the cut wires are red, red w/green tracer and black. Can anyone send me a photo (or good description) of how these wires are supposed to be connected, where the red, red/green and black source from, and how the dashboard switch connects in? Thanks so much for your help!

PS >> I was able to jump the motor and get the antenna up, but not able to get it to reverse and go back down! I do have power from the dash switch in off position, and power is killed when switch is on (I assume the switch is a manual override to lower the antenna.
