I've not done anything to the car since my last post about the dummy lights, but... I think I figured it out. Small red wire to the alternator came off. Easy enough...

It's been cold, so rather than fixing the car, I decided to tear the old harness apart. A brief write-up of what I found, and more pictures can be found here:

Please correct me if I got wire locations or anything else wrong, but I think its correct. In my case, I could have replaced only 5 bad wires quite easily, leaving the old harness in place. But, having not known what goes where... I really didn't have a chance. Maybe next time...

Hope that might help some others that are considering similar repairs. And for all those who helped me out... again, a *BIG* thank you!
