Overhead Console - Wiring Question
On my 94 XJ i have the keyless remote option and was wondering the if the wiring connection (below) can be used for the overhead console as well. I found a pristine console at the junk yard. On the display what are the readout functions (time, compass, and outside temp)? Thanks.

My console harness has a white connector going into the display that also seems to feed the lights. I doubt the one for the keyless module will work, but I could be wrong. Also, my console only reads compass and outside temp, and it's out of a '92, I believe. Going into my Jeep, I didn't have the correct wiring setup for the console, so I made it a 4 wire hookup. Power coming off ACC slot in fuse panel, ground to kick panel screw and two wires for temp sensor behind front bumper.

I used the one at the bottom corner passenger side that goes up into the bracket. I'm sure you could use a different one if you wanted to, but that one was just the closest and easiest to get to for me.
