I am doing a little "consulting job" for a company that is developing a small motorcycle. They hired a guy to wire the prototype which ended up with multiple problems with what did work and the rest did not work. When I got involved I found the entire bike was wired using his favorite colors of green, yellow and black. The wires were connected to the engine harness and other components which then came out the other end of the harness shielding a different color.
Once I got everything sorted out and working they were actually able to begin testing the bike. I would get calls, this and that stopped working. Each time I would find broken wires at a terminal or other connection. I finally noticed the wire was copper colored on the outside but appeared silver colored when cut and looking at the end. Turned out the wire was purchased off e-bay and was copper clad aluminum from China.
They will have close to a $1000 in that wiring job before it is over. Something to think about before attempting a wiring job on the cheap.
