98 Cherokee Classic 4 speed Automatic
Hi, I need the Internal (transmission) wiring harness. Supply houses do not have it. My Jeep not shifting back to first gear when I stop, have to manually shift gears. Anybody know where I can get wiring harness?

Junkyard? What happened that you need the whole harness?

I would try another transmission computer before I started digging in the transmission. I am not certain if they are still a separate unit in 98 or not. My trans had the same problem and a different computer cleared it right up.

Hit and run post, I think. No replies since the first post 6 days ago, and he didn't respond when I PM'd him that I have the harness.

- Stop throwing parts at it. Ask, test, diagnose, then replace.
- Describe the problem you are having, in detail.
- We'll take it from there.

Have a jeep friend who has lots of parts laying around-not like I'm paying a fortune for them. He has been working on jeeps for years. We arent just throwing stuff at it. He did ask and thats what he came up with. I'm not good with vehicles so it's a little hard for me to explain. From what he says you have to put it down in 1st(/2nd) to pull out and also again when stopped (lights signs.. ect). and recently he said sometimes have to put it in 3 to pull out. It's like it doesnt shift correctly, but once going we can switch to drive and go.

If he didn't do, or have you do, any actual testing, he's just throwing parts at it.
Test. Diagnose. Then replace.
