connector on 89 harness different on 92 ex 4 cylinder

5.0 cop · 10-31-2005, 02:54 AM

I am currently doing a swap from an 89 mustang that I bought wrecked into a 92 ex 4 cylinder. I am almost done except I was unable to connect the alternator because the connectors are different. PLEASE help me I want to get it done already THANKS

I dont understand. If you are using the 89 5.0 harness and a 5.0 alternator it should plug right in.

im sorry I did not explain myself, the harness connects to the altenator harness

plug does not connect to the vehicle harness, my plug has three prongs and the 92 has two and wont connect I hope this clears things up THANKS

Ok so the dash harness dont plug into the engine harness.

You can.

A. Swap to a different year engine harness that matches up with the dash harness.(Reccomended.)

B. Swap out the dash harness to a year that matches up with the engine harness. (Definitely the hard way.)

C. Splice the two harnesses together. (I did this for a buddy and I was able to get everything working but the fuel pump wouldnt come on on its own when you turned the key forward. So we had to rig up the fuel pump.)

Godd luck,
