Advice appreciated on how to go about checking wiring runs. Thanks.

but you can bodge something with the correct size Lucar clips, or get one out of a Toyota- try and get as much of the loom as you can, it saves buying wire...
Wiring should be
No idea about your current wiring, most likely the warning lamp is white with red trace.

Thank you for the additional information.
Have located a Denso connector on ebay which I plan to try and use.
