If you are going to get another one from the pickNpull anyway I wouldn't bother trying to figure out which connections are A, B, C etc. I would just go under the Jeep and find the 2 black wires that are going into the NSS and cut them and loop them together. All the wires below the electrical connector will be changed when you get the replacement NSS anyway so no big loss and gets it over with

 

Here's what I did.
That grey is tape I pulled off. You can see the paperclip I used (I cut it to size) to jumper the B-C pins.
I taped it off so it does not contact any ground. The jumper is on the connector going to the switch.
Be sure it really does make the jump. I used a multimeter to check continuity on the pin side before putting the connector back together it to be sure it was connecting. At first it didn't make connection, wasn't pushed in deep enough. Pushed it in deeper. Done deal.
Really easy solution. The reverse back up lights may not work so be aware of that. Mine don't. Easy bypass until or if I get to cleaning up my NSS. Hope this helps

 

yea, huge help. i know it seems like a funky McGyverish bandaid at the moment but I can afford to get one from PnP right now, and the vehicle is a DD so I cant disable it for long by repairing the existing one so jump it it is. thanks too all for the help, as usual, CF rocks!

 

Don't feel bad. I by-passed mine 5 years ago and it's still that way

 

The rate I'm going, mine will probably stay that way too. Have other more important things to put my $ to fix on my Jeep right now.
Glad the picture helped. I was confused with jump this, cut that, etc. When actually do it, so simple.

 

lol

 

as per previously stated I will post my results. after getting temporarily stuck in a parking lot, made it home and did the jump, which was surprisingly simple. gonna have to work till i get a replacement to rebuild, hopefully it wont be too long.

thanks again for all the help.
CF rocks.

Only takes a couple or 3 hours to remove,clean (quickest part to do),and reinstall yours. Why buy another?

 

its a 14 dollar part at PnP and i like to learn, so if i buy one i can take my time rebuilding it.
that and this is a DD, the grocery getter, really dont want it to be down for too long, like, if something went wrong or whatnot.

because. that's why!
