-- Before replacing any wiring --
Check the in-line fuse holder is present, and that the proper value (7Amps) is installed. The Red wire should not melt/burn insulation. Instead fuse should blow - and only when there is an electrical fault present.
-- Wire connections --
The smaller Red wire connects to only 2 endpoints -- Regulator/Rectifier and the ignition switch.
