Need wiring help

2 things, I got all new wiring from YO i.e. M&H.

My rear defogger has a black wire and a black/white wire with a 'T' connector, well I do not have a 'T' connector on my new harness, think I am missing a wiring piece that goes from the T connecotr to the Rear defogger switch.
Does anybody know for sure?

I cannot find a connector on the new harness, that connects to my map light connector, again am I missing some wiring or did M&H not account for that in the new harness?

yes both have an extra harnesses for that. Is not part of the underdash harness, but an extra, being extra accesories.

The rear deffog swith has 3 prongs shaped like this -_- where plugs a harness with two wires being the output for the blower with same black and white wires for speeds, and the other one is green with male bullet kind terminal for the positive input to be attached to an acc source which underdash harness provides.

The Map light more less the same, where you'll find a black wire with eyelet terminal for chassis ground to be attached to the common ground source fro all the dash stuf ( above the emergency brake area at dash frame ), one pink male bullet kind terminal to be plugged to the batt source provision, and a yellow wire also with male bullet kind terminal to the door jam switch ground provision

I do not have either harness and M&H do not make them, so I guess I will make my own.   ::)

they are fairly easy to make, the deal is try to find the plugs

I think this will be helpfull

the map light door ground and batt sources are around the speaker area.

the acc source for the heater is around brake pedal area, the acc switch light source is just above the acc switches area, around the heater/CA controls

Thanks again Nacho, you have been a BIG help.

I was just going to use spade connectors and not try to use the right connectors, but now I feel guilty for taking the easy way and not doing it the right way!

So thanks for the GUILT trip NACHO!!!   LOL

LOL... weeeell, sorry for that LOL...

actually the only "big" deal is the map light plug, but terminals are available around. You could plug them individually each terminal inside the map light plug though, but good isolated and taped together. You can in fact try to make a molded plug based on silicon to keep the just like a plug

If you changed your old harness for a new full undedash harness you can get donor plugs for the rear deff switch... its the same than the AC speed level switch ( if your car is AC ).

T conectors I think are available at parts shops up there since is not an exclusivelly Mopar stuff. At least they are locally ( and trust me, HERE is hard to find anything )

And bullet kind male terminals for the feed sources are also available around

I have a full map light harness around I think, but if this was floated a week ago a friend of mine who traveled to USA could get it shipped to you from there instead internationally

Got lucky, bought a maplight to get the lense and it had the harness.    :icon_smile_big:

Found the rear defogger harness, it was in a bag with the A/C controls, so I am golden again, well except that M&H put the wrong light socket on the A/C controls, but it fits.  :2thumbs:

Thanks again Nacho!!
