Regulator/Rectifier Wiring Help Please.

Hi Folks - 2002 998 Bip

There are 3 yellow wires that come out of the reg/rec, which lead to a block connector. The other side of the block connector has 3 yellow wires leaving the connector.

On my bike, this block connector caught fire and has melted away completely - spectacular, but not what you want on the way home on a Firday night.

I am going to replace the damaged wires and put in a replacement block connector.

The problem is I cannot identify which yellow wire (from the reg rec) should connect to which of the 3 yellow wires on the other side of the block connector.

Can anyone help me with this? Or does it not matter (any yellow wire to any yellow wire)?

I am an electrical moron, and would appreciate any advice.

BTW, once the wiring is sorted, I will set about establishing why it caught fire in the first place.
