Get a multimeter / continuity tester.
I don't have one, but I've got a screwdriver which lights up when it touches live wires, if that will do?!!
I'm afraid not, as the wires aren't live.
Check what wire goes to what pin on the connector and note it down.
Already tried this, but there's a huge block of glue around the connector inside the plastic coating, and it's not possible to see which wire goes to which pin.
This is where the continuity tester comes in handy. You don't need to brutalize the connector as you just touch one probe to one of the pins of the connector and then try the other probe onto the wires in turn.
Go and get a cheap multimeter, you'll almost certainly be needing it again in the future, even if only for the continuity checking function.
