after installing the 4.0 harness from a 92 explorer into my 90 ranger i’m having a few issues, first off, green dash lights won’t come on, blower motor does not work, radio does not work, check engine light is on but is very dull but the other indicators (red brake and orange rear anti lock) work fine and the headlights/running lamps are doing some odd things, the turn signal lamps are on at all times as soon as you hook up the battery and they work when you flip the turn signal switch but don’t turn off when you i flip the switch, and the head lamps are staying on but very dull. they will turn on full brightness with the switch but when cut off they stay on and very dull. the only difference between the harnesses was the large square connector that went back to the chassis wiring that i modified and turned it into 2 circular connector to match what my truck originally had, so that’s good. and the small harness that goes through the fire wall next to the computer harness was different, had two connector in the engine bay that mounted to one of the blower motor bolts, what looks to be a relay, and the connector on the inside is a blue female and doesn’t have the second connector like my original one did, i tried using the original to begin with but it didn’t work, so i tried hooking the blue one up to original connector in my truck and splicing in the wires and that also didn’t change anything i’m very confused. brake lights work, windshield washer pump works , rear turn signals work, dome light works, cargo lamp works, other things have not been hooked up yet such as alternator, ac compressor, fuel pump, and anything else attached to the engine as it has not yet been put in the truck. plz help.
