Hey everyone I have another ohc wiring question. Yes I did search but did not find everything i needed. I think i have most of it figured out, but have a few questions. I have an '05 btw. Just wondering if yall could check my wiring.

Black - Ground - I understand this

Yellow/Gray - Black and Pink @ Radio - confirmed I have this wire
Blue/Red - Blue and Red @ Radio - confirmed

Green/Orange - Lt Green and Orange @ dimmer - confirmed
Black/Blue - Dome light wire? - i only have one wire at the dome light

Lt Blue/White - Temp Sensor - i understand this
LtBlue/Yellow - Temp Sensor - i understand this

Gray/Black - It says it goes to the Gray/Black @ the SJB on the brown connector. I don't have this wire but I read that it comes through the firewall on '05 and up models, and was changed after the '04 overhaul. Well I looked in the drivers side footwell, and there was a lot of wires coming through the firewall as described, and I saw a gray and black wire. Could this be the one that I splice into?

Once I get around to getting a console with the harness and temp sensor, i'll put it in and possibly add another how to for the '04 and up guys and if the gray and black wire I saw is correct for the '05 i'll add that too. Thanks for the help.

 

Where are you geting this info from? The 04s are a little different

There are a few differences for 2004+:

Console Power (Explorer Yellow/Gray at console)-
2003-back Ranger: Yellow/Black at radio harness
2004-on Ranger: Black/Pink at radio harness

Speed Sensor Input (Explorer Gray/Black at console)-
2003-back Ranger: Gray/Black at GEM
2004-on Ranger: Gray/Black at Smart Junction Box (brown connector)

Map Light Power (Explorer Lt. Green/Orange at console)-
2003-back Ranger: Lt. Green/Orange at dome light
2004-on Ranger: Lt. Green/Orange at dimmer module

 

I got this from the cardomain instructions, but while searching I found that in 2005 they no longer had the gray-black wire in the SJB, and that it went to behind the guages and that it needs to be spliced where it comes throught the firewall.

And for the domelight I only have one wire. Do I splice the Black/Blue from the console to this?

Thanks

BTW I got some info in this thread by STL, the info was posted by rwenzing - https://www.ranger-forums.com/forum2...ght=ohc+wiring

 

I just got these pictures of the black and gray wire that I found.


This is where the wires come through.


The wire circled in green is the gray and black wire. Could this be the one I'm looking for?

 

That wire circled in green is the speed sensor I used the same one

 

Alright thanks stl, that's what I was thinking it would be. Did you wire the black and blue wire to the one wire at the dome light? I only have one wire there.

 

Ya used I believe a a tap connector.

04+ only have 1 wire I believe.

 

Alright thanks lol i think i got everything figured out now.
