Have a look at these, taken from Haynes manual for your vehicle.

Switch No of wires Wire Colour
connection size
K 1 1.0 GR-Grey
K 1 0.5 GR-Grey
57 1 0.5 WS/GN-White/Green
L 1 0.5 GR/SW-Grey/Black
L 1 1.0 GR/SW-Grey/Black
R 1 0.5 GR/RT-Grey/Red
R 1 1.0 GR/RT-Grey/Red
30 1 2.5 RT-Red
56 1 2.5 WS/SW-White/Black
75 1 2.5 RT/WS-Red/White
75 1 1.5 RT/WS-Red/White
58 3 0.5 SW/BL-Black/Blue

Will scan and send diagram to you if needed.

Allan.

PS - the table format is not holding when the message is posted, not sure how to do this, anyway as an example :-

Switch connection = 58
No of wires = 3
Wire size = 0.5
Colour = SW/BL-Black/Blue

Hope this helps.
