    I picked up a totalled 2012 389 a year ago from a buddy for cheap. Reasons being A) front end was ripped off the truck therefore having it wrote off and B) had no engine in it anymore. So seemed like a good idea to fix it and put in whatever motor I felt like would suit it. Of course I changed my mind about half a dozen times and ended up putting an n14 in it. Now I'm in the midst of trying to make a wiring harness for the engine and unfortunately don't have the factory harness from the truck as it went with the motor. I do have another deutsch plug end and all the pins etc but I need a pin out or schematic of the engine firewall connector (top plug on dr. side of firewall) so I can figure out what wire goes where. If anyone can help me out it would be more than greatly appreciated.

    kustoms trucks you need more then wiring that dash won't talk to that engine. they can make it happen

    Ya I'm not paying 5 grand for a harness I can make myself if I had a diagram. Ya I've got a translator box to make the dash work but I'm still needing a basic pinout of the firewall connector. The peterbilt dealer closest to me is useless and less than helpful in getting me the proper schematic

    I have some of the newer wiring schematics but not sure what years they cover
