Asked by Drezden May 14, 2009 at 01:14 PM about the 1996 Chevrolet S-10

Question type: Car Customization

I did an engine swap in my 96 s10 with a 97 s10 and the wiring did not match up so i cut the harness off the old brain and the old harness and rewired them into a pigtail. It keeps blowing a fuse so i need a coverter box for the new brain and the old harness where can i get one?

Ok I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I've never seen any type of converter like that as the engine swap you're describing is not very common. What I would do in your position is go find a full wiring harness for a 97 and completely strip out the old harness and put the new one in. that's probably going to include new connectors to the engine and PCM and everything. If you can do that you should be alright. it's not like a 3rd gen camaro to 4th gen motor where they make wiring kits. this one is just making do with what you can get. I hope this can help you out a little
