mouse eats wires

So I have found a mouse has chewed through 15+ wires where they come through the pass side chassis on a 86. I am able to reconnect them with some good connectors and some suitable wire. This leads me to two problems possibly as there are two white and two salmon or pink wires. My question is can anyone tell me if they are "common" ie same(wouldn't matter which way one one was conected) or are they specific. I can know what pins they connect to on the inside but this does me no good if I can't sort the other, hence my delema and with my phone it's hard to explode the wire diagrams to the point of seeing. Thanks for looking
Joel

Re: mouse eats wires

pink w blk stripe = ECM fused 12V (goes to most every solenoid, some sensors, etc.) so those are all the same.

White, not so sure of.

Re: mouse eats wires

The patient lives. ICM despite checking out good. Thanks to the many folks who have posted here in the past where I could learn from you all! I feel lucky as I felt the ecm was shot due to the mouse and me putting in the bat before knowing about that issue. But in threads kept seeing posts where it checked out but was the issue and I'm cheap. As it seems a part that goes often I figured a spare would be a good thing if nothing else. Again thanks all.
