Blower motor resistor pigtail
I can't find the correct pigtail harness that plugs into to the resistor box for the blower motor , I have 1998 limited 5.9 GC ZJ, it has the auto climate control so it's the 3 wire harness not the four , anyway does anyone know where to get one or the part# , I am wondering if the 99 Wj uses the same one also...any help is seriously appreciated

Yup that's the 4 wire one for manual climate control I need 3 wire one for auto climate control (has the digital temp on dashboard) it is near impossible to find , I suspect that cuzz the 98 5.9 was one year only that maybe they used the 99 gc resistor and is why it's not listed as a part for 98 limited.....I tell u I appreciate the response tho !! If someone knows if the 99 is the same I'd love to hear from yea...not sure how to go about a cross reference on the part from 98/99 resistor pigtail..

Like i said when i bought the jeep the heat did not work , (dont ask!) I narrowed it down to the missing pigtail ...somebody took it out or was in the middle of fixing it , they must of gave up on trying to find one .so anyways i dont have a pic but i think this is the plug (you cant see it that well its plugged in!) Same color wires etc etc

it looks like it but I see it looks like a two prong (2 wire pigtail) so I don't think so, but see that's another problem I have no idea what I am talking about either lol, another problem is the resistor in my jeep is impossible to see the plug or get the box out , anyway I think it should have three prongs , but it does look identical

Man that has same color wires and is 3 wire plug , jeep had to have used the same pigtail in the 98 , it was built at the end of the zj era and would explain why the part store can't find a 98 pigtail in the computer....what's the chance of it fitting a 98???

yup I think u on the right track, say that particular plug don't fit the box in my jeep, I could just get the box with the wire upgrade kit and just screw the box to the underside of the dash , anyway great link bro...I think this has explained what I need to do , I noticed it had a write up saying some owners have wired the resistor box direct (no plug ) I wonder if I could just clip the wires directly to the prongs individually ?? Thanks for doing some investigation for me huge help
