Q:I have a 2002 windstar n i was putting a stereo in it n the harness from the dash shorts out now i have now power to the stereo all the fuses are good what else would be the problem

Any of several things could have happened. There is more than one fuse panel on most newer vehciels, you may be missing the bad fuse. Also a lot of radios are powered thru a body computer, you could have burnt that up. . Could also be as simple as not having the power lead of the radio hooked to a live power wire. Your local library should have All Data or some other auto repair information online . Get a wiring diagram and loscations of fuse panels and power distribution panels and recheck everything

Q:I am just wondering if there is such thing as a wiring harness plug adapter. My car came factory with a Kenwood cd player. I am wondering if there is a way to swap head units with out having to splice. I have a Kenwood KDC-222, it's ok but to be honest I have had better results from Dual. I'll probably end up going with a pioneer though. Also I use non-factory subs. Anyways any help would be appreciated.

Q:I have a 1994 Acura Integra LS manual transmission and the wire harness is bad, my friend has a 1992 Acura Integra LS also with a manual transmission and he has the wire harness for it still. Would it be compatible with my car?

Maybe. The 1992 is second generation while the 1994 is third generation. However, if the connectors are the same there is still a good chance they are compatible. EDIT - you can check out the part numbers for the exact harness in the source. If they are the same part number you are in if not, I doubt the store would stock two different part numbers of the same thing.

Q:I have a 2004 vortec motor, transmission, and transfer case. I want to install them the easiest way possiable into a 1994 extended cab 4x4. Is painless The way to go. Thanks fellow viewers!

i am willing to bet painless does not make a wiring harness for that kind of a swap besides ull need the ecm and everything. so i would go to ur local junk yard or OKorder and find a truck that has been wrecked and is unfixable and take what u need. i am restoring a 1980 olds cutlass supreme for a friend on the side and i have put a 2wd chevy 2002 vortec motor and 4L80e tranny in it and i just took what i needed from the truck and it sounds and shifts great. hope this helps

Q:I have a 98 Acura. I put in a Sony car stereo in 1999 or 2000 maybe. Have wiring harnesses stayed the same since then? Basically I just want to put in a newer stereo to get current features like AUX in (on front) or SD/USB slots. No amplifier involved Are most of the stereos today set up the same so I just need to pull the old one and swap the wiring harness? Or does it also vary by brand? Thanks

It does vary by brand, but most head unit manufacturers have changed their harness design (sometimes more than once) in the last 15 years. If you replace your head unit, plan to re-do the wiring.

Q:I own a 2005 chevy cobalt (base) (no pioneer upgrade/onstar). I bought a pioneer DEH-x5500HD and dont know which harness to buy.
