What do these Wires do????

Really need help figuring out what these wires do or go to. I have just sent my wire harness to a gentlemen that is going to clean it up and actually do it correctly (fuses and relays). The issue I am having right now is that these wires where attached to the wire harness by single fuses. Meaning that the wires had a single inline fuse going to them. Well at least the reds and I think the purple did also. What do these go to, really need this information so when I get the harness back I can make sure I reconnect what needs to be reconnected? All info is greatly appreciated. I know that one of the wires must go to all parking lights because the fuse blow once and I replaced it. The thin wire went to a oil pressure sensor, do not know why since the gauge did not work. Gauges where all stock and will be replacing them with a Dakota digital universal cluster that I picked up cheap for $150. Wish me luck, but I really need to know what these wires are meant for.

Found out what the wires are needing to go to. Reds, need a inline 25 fuse line to each that are bolted to the junction box. Thick brown is to the ignition and will be hooked to the wire harness for ignition. Light brown was for oil pressure and will not be used since the stock gauge will need be used. Purple do not know yet.
