Need help with brakes 200 1983

Hi,

I got a 1983 Volvo 240 GLT stationwagon with four wheel disc brakes. A month ago, I decided to replace the front right wheel bearing, noticed I needed to remove the rotor and calliper. In the process of doing so, I noted that the callipers and rotors could use some replacing. I also stripped the hose and broke the lines.

Good news is, it's all re installed. New rotors, new brakes, new callipers, and new bearings. Only problem is, I think I skrewed up which line (there's two) that goes to which part of the calliper.

I thoroughly bled the entire system, but the Brake Failure light is still on and the brakes go down way too deep. Wondering if anyone has a schematic that tells me which line goes to which part of the calliper. Please, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
