Hi all!
I need a wiring diagram for the ignition to an 89 Ignition switch, a little background:
I went out to my car this morning and someone had tried to steal it via the good old screwdriver jammed into the ignition technique, thank god it didn't work, but I am left here with a mangled lock cylinder, and a need to get to work in the morning. I followed the procedure for removing the lock cylinder (drill out the pin, and pry it out) but the outter part of the cylinder just broke off and theres no way to pry the guts out. All the autoparts stores/junkyards within reasonable distance of me are closed on Sundays, and I work at 6am tomorrow morning. I just want to basically "hotwire" the car by connecting the +12 const. to the IGN1/2 and ACC wires then cross the starter wire to start it. Not the best answer, but it will work for a day until I can get a new cylinder.
I'm just having trouble finding a labeled diagram of the ignition harness to determine which wires are which. I found one source that said 12 const is yellow, IGN 1 is red/Light blue, IGN 2 is Black/ Light Green, ACC is Gray/yellow and starter is Red/L. Blue. Id just prefer to have the connector diagram Vs the wire colors (because I know how wire colors can change from year to year)
This is my first post here, too bad it has to be under such horrible circumstances
