Replacing the batter cables today, while I’m at it I’m replacing my fusible link. Noticed during the cable removal my link doesn’t have the plug connector. All 3 links were in the fusible link box. I ordered these 2 parts 82998-12470 & 90980-10982. Just want to verify that the white & red wire is what I will solder the new wire to. The second picture is the original condition I found, the first is after I removed the red extension wire

I don't have the '96 EWD handy, but...

I think it's a safe bet that the '96 circuit is the same.
 
Should be the white/red. Here's a photo if you need a visual reference, I just did a big wire harness overhaul myself. There should be an electrical manual PDF floating around here some where.

I personally don't recommend solder connections in the engine bay. Mechanical connections are preferable. I use "heat shrink butt connectors" with the correct crimp dies/tool on all auto and marine applications. But I know people that use solder butt connections so its up to you in the end.
