Archived Ignition Switch?

[RickFox]

Went to start the truck last night and it didn't work. I have all dash lights, Fass primes, turn the key and nothing happens. I have done some research on here without success. I am able to jump the starter from the battery. Could it be the ignition switch, neutral safety switch, or starter connection. I did go through and check relays and fuses, all seem to be fine.



Any help will be appreciated.

Could be clutch pedal switch - there's a switch and a connector up at the top of the clutch pedal linkage. I don't remember right now how it's mounted, but I suppose it's possible that the switch or connector is loose. How did you check relays? It's easy to swap fog lamp/high beam/etc. whatever uses the same one.



That's just the easy stuff you've probably already checked. Good luck.

I think that the 1st thing to chase electrical , is getting a wiring diagram , sorry I have no link for that truck , using a test lite , you need to go back through each componant to see where the start signal does not go through .
When you jumped the starter , was that power to the small wire on solinoid ?

Ya I ran it from the battery to the small wire on the starter.

That says no key sig. , I wasn't sure if you were hot batt. to started motor , the large cable to starter is always hot , so you can jump from that to small wire .
Did you get acess to a diagram yet ?

No, haven't really had time yet. That is my thing to do tomorrow.
