What model year is the wiring harness from and what year is your Jeep?
Other than the temp and compass, the other features won't work;. different computers.alpinetiburon04 said:Here's a trick for you guys: I've got a 91 sport with NO (really. there aren't ANY.) wiring above the headliner. However, underneathe the dash board (on pass and driver sides) there are many (yes. lots of them.) unused connectors. I want to put a 97+ o/h console into my 91. I know I'm going to have to grab a temp sensor and staple in onto the front end, but what eles would you guys recommend? Should I get the donor harness and splice it? Think it'll work? I'm not sure if this can be done. The wiring would be totally different, and I'm thinking I'll have to just run my own wiring all over the place. Any suggestions? (other than not doing it because I'm an idiot and still haven't fixed my water pump?)
Nothing else on a 91.alpinetiburon04 said:I thought the temp and compass were the only features. What else is there?
alpinetiburon04 said:No I mean on a 97 - 01. What features does the console have? I thought it was just a compass and exterior temperature.
I knew that his would be your next question that's why I said that's all (temp & compass) that would work in your '91.alpinetiburon04 said:I feel like I could just splice into stuff all around the cabin and get the same features. Yes? No?
LOL. I originally made that mistake too on the 2 black and white striped wires. Good thing that when they are incorrectly reversed nothing gets fried. One is the data info wire and the other is a ground IIRC so if they're swapped you'll still be in good shape. Whew!JrTxJ said:1/2 success!! i apologize for not making my own thread, but hopefully if someone searches and they have this problem they're realize how easy it is to mess up, too. i had accidently connected the two different white/black wires incorrectly, so i swapped them and now the console comes on!
however, my keyless entry still doesn't work. when i reconnect the harness, the power locks kick (meaning they're getting power) but my remote doesn't lock or unlock the car. i still have to key in. i noticed on the new harness those two extra wires i was talking about before come from the keyless entry circuit board. i wonder if because they're connected on one end and have no where else to go on the other if that is messing it up?!?
