I installed a one piece Shift harness and overall I liked the quality of the harness but I had two bad connectors that I had to replace. I found one while doing continuity tests on the switch and the other pulled off in my hand once I started checking them.

Terry, I think I remember someone telling me at one time they were one company but the owners got fueding and one left and started the other company. This was many many many years ago.

Jim, I bought the looms from Narrangasett Wiring Services in Rhode Island. I realize Rhode Island Wiring Services is a different company however I have a feeling the two companies are some how interconnected.
I tried to email Narrangasett today without any luck.

Terry, I have installed several sets from Rhode Island Wiring and never had a problem.

Those two business are only a block or two away from one another.

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

While installing the shift change wiring loom to the solenoid valves I discovered that the bullet end connectors are not the right type as they are larger in diameter. The originals were 4 mm diameter where as the new ones are 4.5 mm diameter. I may be able to carefully file them down or make and fit new ends. I guess I am not the first person to be faced with the problem.
I intend contacting the manufacturer to see what can be done now and in the future for others.
