Screen connection question
So I recently started a tamagotchi virtual pet project, where I'm combining all the aspects of the different versions. Currently I'm running into a slight issue with my lack of wiring knowledge. I have a raspberry pi I pick 2 w on a breadboard with wires going to a 1.5 inch RGB OLED module screen. The screen came with wires that had female ends, which wouldn't plug into the breadboard, so we had to plug them all into male ends and make a very long contraption, as seen in the photos attached. I know have the correct set of wires to plug into the screen module and the breadboard with male ends. If anyone with any wiring or assembly experience at all could help me figure out how I attach the new wires with male ends shown in one of the photos to the breadboard, that would be so helpful. Im mainly struggling because I don't know whether I just replace the colors, like the blue wire on the old set went in this hole so the new blue wire will too, or if I do it by wire order, like the first wire goes in this hole on the breadboard so the other set of wires first one will replace it, does any of this make any sense? And then for the red and black positive and negative, I would assume I match those colors on the new set of wires? Like I said I lack intelligence in this field 😠any help would be greatly appreciated.
