Well. After years of being on this website and reading the Projects section, I finally have a project that I can contribute. But I need some help in figuring out the wiring for this job.
I found a Homelink/sunroof module for the overhead console out of an '02 Mountaineer that fits exactly in the same spot as the original sunroof only module. I have swapped the module out. The sunroof switch works like the original.
Now I just need to figure where to get a +12V and ground from the courtesy light wiring. I believe that the black wire on the courtesy light module is my ground (will go to the black wire on the Homelink). I have a green wire on the Homelink (+12V) that I need to connect to an "always live" +12V on the courtesy light module. There is one there as the courtesy lights always work. There are 4 wires on the courtesy light connector. Once I'm finished, I'll put it in the Projects section.
The reason that I'm doing this is that the console cost me $30.00 as opposed to $400.00 for the Homelink mirror.
Thanks.
