Default Transmission wiring issue

I have a 2002. Long story short, the female end of the transmission wiring harness caught fire and burned up its connecting wires to the ECM as well as the wires that I assume to be connected to the transfer case (pictured). Can someone identify the wires that I need to order so I can redo the wiring for female leads as well as the the other wires that are going from what I assume to be transfer case connector to ECM?
Female end leads that got burnt up. Will remove once I know what parts to order

Possible transfer case wiring or something leading towards the rear of the vehicle

People will need to know what sort of transfer case you have; the 3-button or 4-button version.

it had a bad terminal in the connector that heated and melted the connector shell. Its All but guaranteed to have damaged the case half of the connector, the terminals conduct heat in... prepare for a major PITA.

so you are saying connector going to the ecm from the transmission is probably bad? Like the entire thing?

connector INTO the the trans case..top pix, pull the connector off ( unless its welded itself together) the half going into the case.

usually BOTH halves of the connector overheat. It might take a case pull/ disassembly to fix it. Not a happy thought.
