I bought this ranger with the swap almost complete. Here are the specs.

1999 ranger 3.0 2wd the donor 1997 explorer 5.0.
It appears to have the ranger under hood harness with the explorer engine harness. It has the explorer ecm and the cluster.
Here are the issues, alt is not hook up of course not charging, the a/c seems to be hooked up to the engine harness but has the wires still in the under hood harness so I am not sure what will need to be done? the transmission also does not shift correctly It could be mechanical but want to get the wiring lined out first. The cluster does not have a check engine light working and the o/d light does not seem to work. It also has a fuel res light that comes on when the door is open goes out when closed, the theft light flashes but it does start and run.
I have read about some repining and a ground added that needs done but I don't think it has been done anyone know what issues that would cause?

There is more I am sure but will deal with them as they come. Thanks for any help you can give
