Ludwig,
One wire at a time is the correct way to do it.
As you replace each wire, determine it's gague and
replace it with a wire of equal or larger gague so
the current won't overload the wire and melt the
insulation. If you can get it, there is wire that
is insulated with Teflon. It's very slick and is
highly heat resistant. It may be very expensive
as we used to use it at work on the DOD stuff we
were building. As for color, if you can't match
the original, use unique colors for each circuit
so you can tell in the future what you're working
on. This requires that you document the colors
so you don't forget and so anyone else can figure
it out too.
There are aftermarket replacement harnesses for
sale out there in the $75 range if you find that
this is more than you want to do after you get
into it. Good luck,
Phil
