Wire gauges in System 80 harnesses
The harness uses 22 gauge wire except where the wiring tables mark it: the +5 V and ground runs are 18 gauge, and the heavy feeds such as the 12 V DC into the power supply and the lamp and coil supplies are 16 gauge. Use at least the same gauge when replacing a wire.
