I went out and looked at my '82...the harness that's cut in the first picture, to the left of the wiper motor, is for the cruise control; the one in the last picture just to the left of the transmission dipstick tube is the air conditioning harness.

The good news is they're both easy to find replacements for. The cruise harness will need to be from an 82 or 83 unless you upgrade the column and cruise control, but that's a fairly major project and I don't imagine you'll want to fool with it right away. Look for an 82 or 83 Suburban in a wrecking yard and get 'em both.

Eureka! I just remembered there's a guy in Leander advertising an 82 Suburban he's parting out on the parts section of this very forum...look him up. It was originally a diesel but the a/c and cruise harnesses should be the same, and there may be other parts you can use.
