I have a '94 855 T. The engine wiring harness has been hacked up a bit......

I've come into possession of a '96 854R parts car that is more or less complete.

I'm pretty sure that there are a couple of differences in the harnesses such as the VSS,

but does anyone know if there are any major issues that I should take into account before I swap the harnesses?

Thanks,

Bill

What color interior on the parts car? :ph34r:

They should be the same, at least workable. 96 would have OBD-II as well, which I don't think the 94's had, but I don't know if that would change anything.

94 get the speedo signal from (auto) tranny, 96 gets it from ABS wire
94 tranny has speed sensor at the back of the (AT) trans, 96 AT doesn't
94 has DTC reader, 96 doesn't
btw, I had a 94 855T with both DTC and OBDII

I'd say it might not work.
