Looks like somebody put an accessory on your car. Car Alarm maybe?

Burning wires indicates a near or full short to ground somewhere. You might want to look for a cut or bare wire touching the body. It also might be a good idea to return the wiring to the original configuration, connecting the same color/striped wires together, but if you do not feel comfortable with electrical systems this may not be the best job for you to start with?
Can the seller help with this at all?
