open not ajar

now, this has probably been covered, but I can't find it anywhere. I've googled upon googled.

but my question is, can you remove the engine wiring harness out of a 2000 4runner limited with the motor still in the engine bay?
I need to replace it as the old one has been fried upon replacing.

thanks

Not sure if I'm answering your question or not...
Some removal of parts is necessary to get to the wiring harness.
