So after about 2 months of trouble shooting some electrical issues in my 89 xj i have decided to go ahead with a full out of vehicle harness build. I think i have most of my bases covered as far as materials and layouts go but I need a schematic/ diagram of the entire harness for an xj, and yes i know vehicles will vary on options but i will adjust as i need. I work at a police equipment install shop and am using one of our higher models of power distribution units in conjuction with all weatherpac connections on everything. Im getting rid of some of the things i really could live without so this will keep my budget in check. I will also be building this around the use of a switch panel to control all of my lighting,fuel pump, and other accesories. I will also be getting rid of the oem lighting in favor for LED's in most of the cab and they will all be getting power from timed outputs via the PDU. Lastly i will be ditching the the original console for a Jotto desk police unit from a crown victoria since I have about 13 of them hanging out. I will be doing a serious right up and bill of materials with lots of pictures in the coming weeks but need a little help getting it all in order. So any form of diagram or schematic of any part of the electrical system would be a huge contribution! Thanks for any replys!:)

Check my RENIXPower group (groups.yahoo.com/group/RENIXPower,) since that's my online repository of RENIX goodies. Since you've an 89, that's RENIX (RENIX = 1984-1990 XJ/MJ w/AMC gasoline engine.)

I need to get more scans done, but I've got to get a scanner first. Meanwhile, see if I've got them up there (I think I do) and let me know if I do not - I may have them and haven't upped them yet.

And, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. One of my pet projects is a re-wiring of the engine bay, dividing it into logical subharnesses based upon system and location (making it easier to service) and using Amphenol connectors (making it more environmentally resistant.) I'll be doing that sometime after I restomod the 89 Limited I'm doing for my wife...
