Trunk Wiring Issue

I've been experiencing successive failures with the electronics in the trunk area. First my rear fog light failed, then my reverse lights and recently my trunk latch failed to open electronically. Continuity tests showed that continuity was lacking in some of the wires. Further investitgation traced it to the wiring harness next to the trunk hinge, as 5 wires were 'broken', 1 was ready to go and only the remaining
four were still in tact. Looks like the opening and closing the trunk, constantly bending the wiring harness caused the wires to break. (Strange, it seems like such an obvious mechanical
design flaw.)
Can anyone put me in touch with a 'online' wiring diagram and specifications (i.e. wire size, etc) for the trunk wiring harness? Failing that where might I be able to order one from? I suppose I could splice the broken connections, but I would like to replace the broken wire in its entirety instead, from connector to connector.
Thank you,
Steven
