I agree with grbrown , the best way to remove the system is to remove the entire system including the wiring .
If this is not possible then you should terminate the old wires with silicone injected butt connectors and not tape.
Squirt a shot of silicone into each butt connector , then crimp as usual.
This will provide a cheap weatherproof wire termination .
