Changing the title should have no effect on the follow feature.

Contacted the guy. The MJ versions aren't so different. Gonna see if he will do a run.

I just changed my title from "Wiper Stuck in Intermittent - Long Delay (1990)" to "Wiper Stuck in Intermittent - Long Delay (1990) - Fixed". Then it occurred to me, does changing a title break the follow feature? So I am asking.

Success so far. And it is true there are no tools required. In my case the old one came out in three pieces so a pretty good sign it was time for it to be retired! I have noticed the same thing noted by @pizzaman09, this replacement is a bit "tight" in the controls, but, they work. Well, I have not tried cruise yet, but I am not really expecting this to fix that problem (my debug steps to this point here), but if it does, I won't complain. Because of this untested function I have not even considered routing the cruise wire through the column yet. Old One in pieces. New One Something to note for the purist, this replacement is annoyingly longer than the original. The view to the driver with my stock steering wheel hides some of the wiper control text, and 100% of the cruise control text. So if this visual is important to you, you might want to search for a different new stalk. The distance in red is 3 7/16" on the replacement, on the original this distance is 2 11/16.

I welded for hours on this truss for slow heat dissipation, but I'm happy with the result. Hope the track bar clears at the axle mount....

I believe the grey goes to the compressor. Yes that is the circuit breaker. It’s there in the event the in-line diode to the compressor we’re to fail.

Another price drop. $55 shipped. Thanks!

If this is still holding up, please drop in pictures! If not, has a new solution taken it's place?

there was an article on conversion to a different valve cover grommet and an elbow from later vehicles... gave part numbers and info... will try a search on it... try this... i was going to do this for the J hose at the air box, but the 19/32 hose would not make that turn... went a different method to update the J hose (on the other end of where you are talking)...

I messed up big time… So alittle over a year and a half ago after swapping my dummy cluster for a full cluster I was removing the oil pressure sensor and snap, the brass fitting snapped off inside the block. I tried a few different methods to remove it but wasn’t getting anywhere. Bright idea, use a pipe nipple extractor. Well due to my impatience and inexperience the result was the picture above. Cursing myself I still had to come up with a solution, so I relocated the sensor to another spot in the block and tried my best to stop the flow of oil spewing out the block. No amount of JB weld or Marine Tex could keep the oil inside the engine where it belongs, once again probably from impatience leading to poor prep. Regardless I thought that’s not the proper way to fix this so in search of an engine I went. Found a pretty sweet deal for an engine in Virginia, problem was miles and condition were unknown so what other logical choice did I have then to get the engine rebuilt… After killing my confidence breaking off part of my old block there was no way I was gonna attempt this myself… Shiny Fast forward a few months and I now have a freshly rebuilt engine in the truck and am finally able to enjoy driving her around town. I learned a valuable and expensive lesson in patience. This is a 39 year old truck and parts are fragile so take your time(saying this to myself). Anyway I’m just happy to be back.

Thanks a ton for getting those pictures so quickly! I noticed there is a grey wire on one of the relay terminals. Can you tell where that ties into the 4 wires from the connector? You mentioned there is a circuit breaker on the harness. Is that the small component with white wires feeding it labeled 7Y02? That’s an odd looking circuit breaker, are you confident that’s what it is?

Bummer. I put in my new one in November, I guess I'll be watching for recommendations to make it last.....

Of course!! That MJ is my baby! I’ll snap all the pics of the colors of the wires here in a bit.

Assuming you still have that jeep, If you can take pics of the wires for the connectors and relay that would probably work

I’m not entirely surprised. I got really lucky to find that as NOS. Without really tearing my harness out to figure it all out at the moment, I haven’t been lucky to find anything in relation to that harness anywhere. I’m gonna check my 86 manual and see if anything is there. But no luck in my 88 or 89 manual.

Eaglescout526 - yes, you had the only picture I could find anywhere of that harness! Appears to be the same for the 2.5 and the 4.0

Oh look! My picture from my 2.5L AC post. Ok so that harness has an in-line circuit breaker and a relay that can be seen. I will go look at my electrical books and see what I can find for ya.

Thanks fiatslug87! I should have mentioned I downloaded the electrical FSM and reviewed it but it doesn’t seem to include the dealer AC diagram, only the below diagram for the wires on the jeep side of the 4 pin connector.

Hello everyone, I have an 88 MJ with original renix 4.0 that never had AC. I’ve added all the ac parts under the hood, swapped in an AC hvac box and replaced the dash wiring and controller. I can’t find a diagram for how to build a harness to hook to the 4 pin dealer AC connector. I know it includes a relay, 2 wires for the pressure switch and one for the compressor clutch. Can anyone provide a diagram, or close up pics of the wiring? I found this pic but can’t see the details I need.

So it is storming like hell here in central FL so I'll have to wait til tomorrow to get a decent picture.

👍

How do you guys deal with the low quality reproduction Dorman Valve Cover Elbows? Mine started cracking within 2 years and 1000 miles.

1991 2wd Comanche 114000 miles bought it from the original owner
