    So just to begin I have searched over and over for an answer to this but have not came across any posts with this issue.
    I’m trying to replace my overhead console in my 2015 DC sport with an overhead console with the temperature and compass display unit from a 2011 but the plug for the new console is a different shape then the one extra harness that was above my original over head console.
    The extra plug in my truck has three wires going to it, a light pink/peach color, an olive green, and a red wire. The plug on the new console with the display has 8 black wires running to it. I do have the temp sensor mounted in front of my radiator and a wiring plug and harness connected to it already.
    So is there anyway to get this thing wired up? Am I missing something or am I just out of luck and need to find another console?

    Weird that they would put the temp sensor and wiring harness on the truck but not fully run the wires

    The temp sensor is used by the A/C Amplifier but there's no wire from the A/C Amplifier to the overhead harness on the newer trucks like there was on the older ones.

    Since it appears you can't use that overhead console for your 2015, I'd be interested in purchasing it for my 2010. I have the correct wiring/plug for that console and would like to have it. Feel free to PM me for money & shipping discussion ;)
