Can someone point to to some wiring diagrams for the 78 Bronco? I'd like to have all of them, but what I am in need of immediately is the ignition circuit. I've seen several links to wiring diagrams, but a lot of them seem to no longer exist. Does anyone have updated links to them?
The previous owner of my truck very poorly installed a viper alarm system and I think it is messing with the ignition. The truck will crank and crank and then try to fire once as I switch the key back to "run." I got up under the dash and examined the mess of wires, jiggled them around a bit, and then it fired right up. But now it's back to just cranking without starting.
The starter solenoid seems to be working ok, battery is good, but I did notice that it is only getting a brief spark when I let off from cranking (switching key back to "run"), which is when it very briefly tries to fire once. So I'm thinking maybe this theft system is preventing it from sparking while cranking intermittently. Or maybe ignition switch itself is faulty...
