Wiring tutorial Dengfu E10 and Bafang M510

[Lotus Emira]

I cannot find tutorials on bike builds. I see scattered tips and tricks, but everything came without manuals.
I never built an Ebike, now I have an E10 and Bafang M510. Wiring is not intuitive enough for me to know what is what and also what have we learned are the best methods for cable routings? I guess all Bafang motors are fairly similar.
Has anyone (photo) documented their build?

see Rob's video about his assemble

Rob does not go into any detail in terms of assembly or wiring, which is what we are looking for. It's more a demonstration rather than a tutorial. So the questions stand

What do you need to know? The loom is only just long enough the power connector to the motor barely reaches. The wires are just long enough to hide the main loom connector in the headstock as long as you run the display on the right. I can take some photos if you let me know which bits your struggling with.

Does this help?
My 510 has the plugs color coded, it's just plug and play.

It does, thanks

Throttle is optional, right? (just like E-brakes) It works just fine without the connected?

Yes throttle, brakes and lights are all options.

I managed to put it all together and make it work. Indeed, connectors are color coded and only fit where they belong.
As a piece of advice for newbies like me reading this thread, make sure that connectors are fully inserted, as the connection is made only when they are bottomed out in their sockets. Because of this, I learned that it is better to insert all connectors to the motor before putting it in its place and fixing it, because you can better apply force to insert them.
