Does anyone know if a 2008 is compatible with a 2007 for an SJB swap?

Re: Swapped SJB 2007 Ranger

Oh thanks for the information, yeah I was worried about that seems in 2006 they didn't have the passenger side airbag sensor and some of the wiring had changed.

I am still looking for a SJB with...

Swapped SJB 2007 Ranger

Swapped the SJB interior passenger fuse panel in my 2007 Ranger that had no power options with a 2006 fuse panel.

I did this to make my power windows and locks work which I'd swapped out of a...

Re: WANTED: 2006 + Smart Junction Box

Yeah it was a tonne of work!

Ended up swapping the harness in then back to the old one, wish I'd had the SJB and then it all probably would have worked

Re: WANTED: 2006 + Smart Junction Box

I added the wires from a 2008 Ford Ranger for the power accessories that my truck didn't have to my existing harness.

I had tried swapping the harness completely but the truck wouldn't start,...

Re: Adding Power options

How did you make your locks work, did you wire in a CSM module from the expedition?

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

As an update I swapped in the extra lock/window/mirror wires to my existing harness and put them in the appropriate pin positions in the SJB connector blocks.

It seems that at least in the 2007...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Hey Encoded, I wired all the pins in, it doesn't work though yet. For the locks where I'm supposed to put the 15 amp fuse there is only an empty holder.

Not sure if my SJB does not have the extra...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Using the pinouts on the connectors I can figure out the corresponding colors on my harness for 2008, assuming of course that the pin outs didn't change and only the wire colors. I'll have to do...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Some of the wiring seems different, I wonder if it's because the diagrams are for a 2007 harness and I have a 2008 harness that I pulled the extra wires from

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

If I just want to lock the passenger solenoid, I should just connect the Grey Violet to ground and the White Violet to Power and alternate to lock and unlock? It looks that way from the Door Lock...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Cool yeah that would be great, I have never seen anything you add to the SJB that looks like it would provide power remote locking so that would make sense

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

That's what I've done so far, I basically pulled all the wires from the 2008 harness that went to the drivers door and the passenger door and added them to my 2007 harness.

I'd be interested in...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Re: Explorer Overhead Console Dimming Mirror and Powered Visor Install

Leather seat pics are in a post look for Eddie Bauer and they should come up. Ranger is a sport 2007. I never did the auto headlight mod, only wired it for auto dim.

I don't really care for the...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

I didn't pick up the fuse box, probably should have, I imagine maybe if I also swapped it and the new harness that things might have worked. Hard to say.

I'll never know though, ended up putting...

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Found out today that a GEM module can not be programmed in 2002 and up models so it wouldn't have worked anyway even if I added a harness that worked since I couldn't have programmed the GEM.

Re: 2007 install power doors and windows

Truck won't start now with the new harness installed, I guess these harnesses aren't as interchangeable as I had hoped.

I tried putting a manual 2008 FX4 one into a 2007 manual RWD so I could...

Explorer Overhead Console Dimming Mirror and Powered Visor Install

Definately my favorite mod to date, totally looks like it belongs. I'm on the fence about the leather seats I put in, not as sporty, and not through the power window/door install yet but it is a lot...
