Carl,
I have a harness thats in ok condition that i can send you. I only spliced in a vitesse piggyback and re-wired the AFM plug to MAF plug. Would really like a new harness made. Let me know if this can help in anyway and Ill send it to you. Thanks -Wayne

It seems nearly every 944/951 wiring harness has been cut or spliced in some way. And that's just on the way IN. While they were here, we get requests "and add a port for my (this) or (that)."
We get the ******* when we are looking at these because we just know that our chances of wiring them the way the owner wants is nearly nil.
This, and the fact that the 951 has that unusual coaxial cable in it with the impossible-to-find connectors, is what killed the 944 wiring harness project.

Was it from lack of demand, or just the inability to find a useable used harness to build a prototype from? Have you thought of carrying the terminals for your customers to purchase for repairs?
Although not for an early car, I would really like to find the connector that plugs on to the low oil level sender located in the oil pan of the later cars. I have one of these I want to incorporate into my '84.

Lindsey Racing now offers a semi full replacement harness. You will need to depin original harness from DME connector from what I understand

There is a poll on FB in the Premier 944 Turbo Community page regarding this.

So, what we went with was to instead stock the bulk of the electrical connectors you need and let the consumer repair the wiring harness they already have as needed.

Okay, this is a reasonable compromise between the new harness and none. Also it will give me the chance to stop and go through out the rebuild.
As as an aside, a member mentioned many posts back that there is a spot towards the front of the block /starter area where the harness had a tendency to chaff and cause all sorts of issues. Does anyone know where exactly he is talking about this or have a photo? I want to take a peek myself and see the condition of that harness
