Unplug that to make work easier? Or the other one?

I know that these are my OEM cd player wires, I realized that they were hooked on with several other orange/green constant memory wires. Is that OEM? It definitely does not look OEM. You can see it in the far right of the picture, a bunch of orange/green

Checking to see if I can test my flasher, will edit in 5 mins.

~Ok, so I wasn't ecactly sure how I could check the voltage of my flasher since the plugs are housed as well as the unit itself in plastic. What I did do was unplug it and test for continuity OHMS Rx1k.
With prongs touching yada yada its all the way up, and when touching two of the plug prongs of the flasher it read anywhere between 1/4 to 1/2 up. When touching the car's wired plug and the chassis I received a full continuity.
I did that to check and see if maybe the wires were cut before they got to the plug theyre wired up to.
Although knowing how a flasher works, is there solid continuity between the pieces inside? Since the resistor coils heat up allowing both ends to touch, and then untouch. You'd know it more than me anyways, just a thought.

Is there any other way to check the flasher?
