I know this has been addressed many times but couldn’t find the old threads prior to 2020. I am rewiring my 38 wire at a time and need a wire chart for wire gauges. I thought wires were mostly 16 gauge but gent from ynz said there are 14 gauge wires in the headlight circuit as well as 10, 12 and 14 gauges used elsewhere. Any suggestions again as I posed these questions when I did some rewiring on my prior 38?
Thank you

PS. Be nice if the wiring diagram had for each conductor

This diagram doesn't specify wire gauges but it does show which circuits are heavier gauges by the thickness of the lines. If the lighter circuits are 16 ga you can step it up as necessary from there.
