wiring

While chasing down a code 41 that I've just about had it with, I was tracing wires and vaccum lines when I noticed the Ground wire to RH fender near the battery leads to nothing. Does anyone know what this grounds? The wire is still ground to the fender but doesnt lead anywhere. In my vac and...

Hello, Shortly after I fixed the same 1997 Ford Ranger 3.0l Engine, the same problem came back after I replaced the PCM. For about 3 days I was able to run the truck completely normally and reliably. When I got in the truck to head home after work last night, it started having the same issue...

I have a 1994 2.3 ranger with a 5 speed. I bought it not to long ago and it's run a little rough at times. So went to replace the icm thinking that was the problem. Unfortunately it is the harness someone used a bunch of house ground wire to repair it and now it's my problem. I really l I e...

So... I am a bit confused. I've been having a fuel delivery problem and have narrowed it down to a loose fuel pump relay connection. My idea is to solder in a new fuel pump relay connector but I've run into a few issues. First of all, it seems like the connector in there now has two wires...

I have three unplugged plugs on the left side of my engine bay. They are between the airbox and firewall. Does anyone know what these could be for? One thing I am realized in the month I have had my 86 is that even when I turn the key on before completely starting I never see the engine light...

after installing the 4.0 harness from a 92 explorer into my 90 ranger i’m having a few issues, first off, green dash lights won’t come on, blower motor does not work, radio does not work, check engine light is on but is very dull but the other indicators (red brake and orange rear anti lock)...

I'm finishing up an engine swap from a 1988 Thunderbird Turbocoupe into my Ranger, it's a '91 that had the N/A 2.3 in there before the swap, so it has been mostly plug and play. After ironing out some fuel issues, it seems to start and idle fine now, but I found that the tachometer isn't working...

1998, 2.5L ranger, 2WD, manual So I have had issues with the upstream O2 sensor since i got the truck over a year and a half ago. I dont exactly remember when it started throwing a code for it, maybe right after I bought it, certainly not long after I bought it. It seemed like it used to get...

So I've finally reached the point where the long block is assembled (for the most part) and now I'm swapping the A9L mustang computer with the matching harness into the ranger. Ive dug around for a while trying to figure out what is necessary to splice. I've found (By Bob) that connector 39 (8...

My 4.0 1991 ranger has a pig tail unlike any replacement alternators at orielly. It is the style with two outer clips instead of the more round single clip connection. Do I need to just replace this pig tail?? I’m currently broken down I’m going to replace the alternator in the morning when...

Here’s the engine and trans along with everything else that came with. I’m looking into a wiring harness but I’m having issues finding one, if anyone has access to one please let me know. Also dash and gauge cluster any recommendations on where I can get those?

Hello gents! My sons and I are nearing completion of our LS swap Ranger. Currently I have the TCC wire that I’m needing help locating 12v to wire into. It has to have 12v constant until the brakes are applied. I wanted to wire into the brakes switch but I’m unsure because the brakes with is much...

So I went out and dug out my truck today and went to wash the windshield and my wipers stopped in the up position and wont move on there own now. My pissers still work and if my understanding is correct they are on the same circuit so no blown fuse... I think? I'm thinking a bad wiper motor but...

Hey fellow rangers, through a slew of craziness after my starter motor died some 6 weeks ago, I've somehow found myself in a extremely newbie mechanic situation. There is only one line ran from my fender mount relay down to my starter solenoid, which is attatched to my starter motor. One wire...

I have an 89 Bronco II. When I turn it over, the rear antilock light stays dimly lit (Like it's only part way engaged) There's nothing wrong with my brakes, and I used to be able to flick the ignition again really quickly and it would go out. Now it takes a couple minutes to get it off, if it...

Hey all - a friend and I are trying to get an '88 ranger 2.9l V6 up and running. Main issue is that the truck won't always start and won't always stay running. The truck starts right up when it is jumped and I've run it for up to 40 minutes (with the radio/air/lights on, putting a load on the...
