marcial88 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Have a few cable I need Identifying with. Any help is appreciated. With the radio wires, I see the "AMC" wire harness but plugged into those 2 plugs I see another 2 type of harnesses. Are the second set of plugs the current color coded cables newer radios use? 1986 Jeep Comanche X 4WD GM 2.8L V6 Front: Stock Dana 30 Rear: Stock AMC 20 Los Angeles CA Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have nothing for me to connect the wires to. 1986 Jeep Comanche X4WD GM 2.8L V6Front: Stock Dana 30Rear: Stock AMC 20Los Angeles CASent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 These are the courtesy lamps: To cut costs AMC just had all the wiring there for everything inside the cab. So you may or may not have the fog lamp harness behind the grill. If you don't, it is easy to make your own harness and tie it in to that switch. Cargo lamps are MJ only, its a lamp that sits above the rear window of the cab and illuminates the bed. The ash tray lamp looks like this: The cigar lighter lamp i can't find a pic of at the moment but it plugs into the single spade and has a housing the directs light on to the green ring of the lighter assembly and and clips onto it.

Minuit Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 The original radio harness is intact. The mess with the crimp caps is plugged into it. The original radios for 1984 through 1987 had wires hanging out of them, as opposed to 1988 and later, when the vehicle's harness usually plugged directly into the radio. The plug with all 8 pins populated goes to the speakers, and the other one is power, illumination, and ground. This is a diagram of the radio's connections - so the connector that says "POWER" on this diagram is actually the "SPEAKER" connector on your truck. Here's what the 1986-1987 radios looked like. They had several inches of wire coming out of the radio, which plugged into the truck. This one is connected to an adapter for the later style of plug.
