I think the bulb contacts the pink wire. Then the switch controls the ground to the bulb. At least thats the way I see it.

I am not familiar with your style. I see why they use the yellow or I assume why. The light must be mounted in cardboard or plastic. Mine are one wire pink power and they ground to the dash frame. Can you put a bulb in it and take some other pictures.

yes, my set up is different. the switch is turned on when console door opens and the lite is mounted inside on
the back.

I think you are right when you said a piece is missing. I have never had what you have apart.
