No,
Trio includes a new harness from control head to Navaid servo.
Wiring the control head was fairly easy because a harness is included.
The existing Navaid wiring could be used as a guide, for power, signal, etc.
I found it straightforward using the schematics,and opening wire bundles to confirm routing.
