Monday morning I bought a second hand harness from another KZ-TE from a scrapyard for R2.5k. And so Tuesday morning began the work.
First I had to unplug and remove the old burnt harness, which was easy because it was a matter of unplugging and marking circuits i.e. additional circuits things like spot lights, camping light, and some other hidden security switches, etc.
When that was done I could then go through the new harness wire by wire checking for broken insulation(s), colour coding and if plugs were the same to those I had taken out. Were there were any damaged insulation, necessary repairs were made using soldering iron and then neatly taped up. Each sub-harness was then also put in black flexi-tube to prevent future damage.
As I went on, I realised that the new harness did not have an ABS circuit (were there KZ's made without ABS?

Time I have allocated is two weeks of taking my time and doing it thouroghly the first time around

Closer inspection and comparison on the main fuse box cover showed that the following circuits, fuses and or relays are not there as compared to the original:
1. AM2 - 30A fuse not there, also its circuit
2.ECD relay not there, also its circuit
3. Defog - 15A fuse not there, also its circuit
4. STA - 7.5A fuse not there, also its circuit and finally
5. ST RLY (situated next to SUB GLW RLY) not there and so its ciruit.
Except for the defog circuit, which I do not need anyway, does anyone know what these fuses and relays are for?
Please help

Pictures were taken by cellphone do excuse the quality. By last night (day 3) the main harness was pulled in, put in place and the following circuits were connected:
1. park and indicator lights
2. headlights
3. bonnet alarm trigger switch (below bonnet latch)
4. starter
5. ABS (except for the two thick black wires I still need to trace and earth)
