The new MAP sensor is waiting for me to finish up some other things I wanted to fix while waiting for parts. There were a couple of things that were wired wrong in the dash harness and I needed to make a bracket to hold the Dakota's multi function switch. View attachment 1716259304
Since I wanted to keep the internet wiper function and module, I couldn't think of a way to make it work without the multi function switch. I gutted a spare Dart wiper switch and drilled the end of the stalk for the shaft.

I drilled and tapped the end of the plastic stalk for the threaded pin to go through the original shaft.
Then I put it together and test fit everything to a spare dash then I CAD, Cardboard Aided Drafted some cardboard to see if it would work.

My idea worked, but I wasn't happy with how the 1/16th aluminum bracket turned out. I couldn't find the 1/32nd stainless I thought I had, so I used some .028" stainless and hacked out another bracket.

It will be a tight fit with A/C box and much thicker wiring harness, but I think it will work. I'll find out soon enough.
