    Have not gotten around to fixing this yet on my F-14 tomcat. I did noticed that there is a disconnect installed also. It also had a wire soldered to the back of the connector. Not sure why yo would cut a wire bundle like that.

    A good use of wire nuts instead of an connector.

    Quoted from someotherguy:

    Ahhh, let me guess.. F-14 Tomcat?
    Looks like a whole pack of wire nuts in that sucker. I wonder; transformer replacement due to bridge failure / harness got burnt up?

    Yes, it was an F-14 Tomcat.
