You changed out the entire wiring harness to allow for the transmission control module too, Right? or simply put just change over the '98 so everything that was on 2000 is now on the '98 in terms of PCM, harness, connectors many times if not all the instrument cluster has to be changed too.. If its running well NOW, you've done good!
