hey all. hoping to get some help. in the following pic. i want to know what the wires go to. i think two are for the alternator, but not sure. can any one help?...

twoguns ·

also these wires were cut. i know they go tot he wiring lookm for the rear tail lights. but is there anyway to know what each is for? i know you cantt ell at a guess, its more to know how hte buck works? i hope someone understands what i mean. if i goabout guessing, is the worst i would do is blow fuses, till i get it right?
