first time user so sorry if it don't make sense.

I have an old Franklin Electric well pump and cant see the wiring info in control box cover. my question is: If there is a burnt orange wire on the relay switch, what problems will stem from it.

As long as you do not expect to have water it's not a problum.
Could have been anything from a lightning strike, under size wiring running to it, loose connection, bearings going bad causing it to draw more amps, loosing the nutral.
