Quoted from TinyToo:

The wiring harness for the lights and displays is soldered onto the backboxes in quite a few places and so my main question is, does all the wiring from the backboxes terminate in either a junction box or connector somewhere? Basically, will I need to remove the wiring harness from the backboxes and have to resort to de-soldering to disconnect them, or can the wiring harness on the backboxes remain where it is as everything just disconnects?

In my experience, everything ties into connectors. I don't write on the connectors themselves but buy tags for wire labeling and use those. Remove each connector, Tag each one with the corresponding number on the board and then remove back box.be careful when reinstalling, especially the connectors to the littlest pins. Make sure alignment is good and Jo pins bend or are missed.

Stay Puft
