Standalone Harness problems I had my factory harness reworked to be a standalone harness for my 5.3 in a jeep cj7 swap. The company made several mistakes and I had to send it back several times until it came back to me in a usable state. I had them delete the EGR yet there is still an EGR plug and I have a 5 wire MAF and they still gave me a plug for the IAT.
Anyways I installed it and had some issues with the left side of the engine running way rich and finally tracked it down to having to wires backwards on the 02 sensor.
Fast forward a few weeks and I have the vehicle running and everything seems to be fine and my whole harness started melting and smoking. Mainly the bundle of wires over the intake manifold.
Anyone know what would cause this? I am assuming it is something in the standalone harness because the chassis wiring is completely separate...
Also, do you guys think I have any recourse against the company that modified the harness?

Sorry to hear you are having these issues. I would recommend going and buying a standalone harness that is completely new and not modified. As far as recourse. You could send the guy your modified harness back and ask for a refund. If he is reputable he will warranty his work.

Good luck. That still sucks though.
