i bought a "theft" recovery 2012 suburban lt vin#1GNSKJE78CR275511. was only missing 2 door panels, steering wheel airbag, hvac and rear media. i have looked and called everywhere for my instrument (dash) harness part #22841063 and no one has it or even shows a replacement for it. i had to try and rewire the hvac and almost have everything working but i would like to buy a new harness to forgo any future issues. anyone ever have a issue with finding a replacement dash harness before?

*pic for attention*

What I would do is ask the parts department you got that part number from for the years and models that have that harness and check part out, local scrap yards. Also Pm'd your RPO code helps comparing yours to another SUV.
Good website for finding parts at scrap yards - would look for a door or hood then call and ask for the part you are looking for.

I got one from a junkyard when I did an LT to LTZ interior conversion. I bought the entire dash clip which included the dash, supporting structure and harness. It was only about $200. The dashes themselves are $600 new if you’ve ever tried to replace a cracked one. In order to replace the harness you need to remove the dash anyway. You might be able to work with a junkyard and have them remove the harness when they pull a dash to sell.

if it part of it was cut off you could get one from a junkyard and wire that part in if no other choice or watch for one on ebay but has to have the same options, you can find the rpo list in the glove box

i have bought 2 different harnesses now and with the first one used the connectors i needed and wired them in. both harnesses had a flip latch type cluster plug where my factory harness has the regular type.

i have removed the dash a few times now. the problem is no one shows my harness number which i got right off my dash harness in driver footwell.

Can You post a photo of the connector you are looking for either from the harness or the items being plugged into. I might be able to get pin diagrams for you

So....your not looking at the connector before you buy? just blind purchase?

That’s an LTZ or Esky cluster connector and I take it yours is an LT?

no i bought wire harness based off of rpo codes as there is no other option.

yes the only thing im having issues with pinout is the 72 wires that go into the connectors for the hvac. 95% of the hvac works, the ac, and blend actuator are not working properly.
