OK so it was miswired... that tells me if 1 wire is off, there is more than likely more than one wire in the wrong position. I think you need to start double checking all of the wires on the switches and look for any that appear to be strange (the wires all flow and form to exact length and...
I have withdrawn my recommendation of this particular shop, not sure they are even in business any more. Had 3 rebuilt and put on the shelf, two tested bad still when I pulled them down to use them. Not happy.
I do not recommend anyone use Dave's Starter & Alternator out of Enfield, NH. They...
If you have water in a contact system, and it freezes... you have a physical barrier that disappears when it becomes a conductive liquid again.

I wouldn't splice those lines. I would determine the length, gauge, and termination size, and have new ones made up complete (or sourced used from a parts machine if thats preference). Not the spot I would personally want a 'fix' to fail.
