Messed up PSU pinout diagram

So I was sleeving my Rosewill 750w Quark and I totally messed up the 20+4 pin pinout. I don't even want to put it back together until I have a good, reliable pinout I can use.

I found some diagrams, but they are all color coded, which sucks because I already sleeved the cables, so I don't know how to sleeve it.

If anybody can point me towards a comprehensive diagram or give me some advice, that'd be very much appreciated.

I know this is about 6 months too late, but if you just had a bunch of sleeved wires, you...

Well, you know how the stock wires are ketchup and mustard and a couple berry colors mixed in? that is how the pinout is labeled. It shows orange ones in the top left and where they go, a gray one somewhere in the middle, etc. Now I can't see where all of the wires are supposed to go because i can't see the colors; they are all red, black and gray now. So I need a numbered pinout or an actual diagram unfortunately

The thing is, the wires aren't color coded anymore! I already sleeved all of the cables, so the colors are covered by a sleeve. All of these diagrams aren't usable, unless there is a glaring fact that I am overlooking.

I used teleios sleeving and I melted it to the back of the actual pin (heatshrinkless). So it is super dense and I can't properly open them all up again unfortunately.

It is fully modular. I just sleeved it to both ends. And yes, I did every wire individually.

 
you just made your wire harness a lot bigger then if you used 1 sleeve for 1 harness. did you also remove the other end connector too or did you leave it on? do you have or can borrow a multi-meter or ohm meter? you need to find out what each pin on the psu's case connectors do as in 3.3, 5,12v & ground?

Yea, my dad has a multi-meter i could borrow. I removed both ends so I just have a bunch of wires lying around now. How would I go about finding out which pin is what though? Connect one to a ground pin and test all of the others?

Thanks dude! You're the best! I just had to jump the psu and I was able to find the rest (I used a picture of the terminal on amazon for a frame of reference, but it was hard to tell what was what exactly). Now I just need to put it all together.

Again, Thanks dude XD You're better than Rosewill's customer service (or lack thereof)!

I know this is about 6 months too late, but if you just had a bunch of sleeved wires, you can put them in any order you want (i.e. using the color coded pinouts), since the wires just need to connect the correct voltages to the correct positions... You don't need specific wires for specific voltages... Of course, you'll still want to test to make sure the voltages are going to the correct positions, but again, which wire you use for which voltage doesn't matter (since you're connecting both ends fresh)...
