Default neutral park switch wiring harness

does anybody know where i can get the wiring harness for the neutral park switch on a 98 5.9l? i went to the dealer and they were saying i was wrong about what i needed and insisted on the one one for the transmission speed sensor or something like that. so i cracked and paid 25 bucks for it, brought it home and then...SURPRISE!.....wrong harness. the one they gave me was 2 pronged and only had 2 wires going to it. the one i need is 3 pronged and has 3 wires. i called the dealer and explained the situation and they looked it up and said the part is unavailable from the dealer. so im stuck now. none of the local boneyards have durangos that are in the condition to take parts from (crushed already) does anybody know what else i could do?

Do you have the 46RE trans?....If so Yearone.com sells those connectors...its the same as vintage and collectible mopars... with 904 and 727 transmissions

are you sure your talking about the neutral switch?...because the connector is the same...you will simply have to buy the harness and cut the connector and splice it into your existing harness.....
