Default Wires the same???

So guys here is my dilemma... I am most sure that i have an electrical issue. I have a 1988 jeep cherokee with a manual transmission.

So here is my question... can i use the electrical harness of a 94 jeep cherokee into my 1988 jeep cherokee?

I'm pretty sure that's a big no. The 88 is what they call the "Renix" version. Electrical was very different.

Poke around Cruiser54's site, and you might find a more certain answer. He's the expert on the Renix stuff.

I have a 90 (last year of the Renix) and have attempted to use electrical components from the later models. No go.
