Fuse and Wiring Diagram

Hello, does anyone know where I can find a wiring diagram for my 91 Rexhall? It's a Ford Chassis but I'm not having any luck finding anything online. My key turns and starter doesn't engage. I have to turn the key to acc and jump it at the solenoid. Wiring is a mess as the previous owner added all sorts of weird things.

I replaced the actuator arm in the steering column but it's still not engaging so it has to be a wiring issue since it jumps at the just replaced solenoid in the engine compartment. There is no wire to connect to the ignition side of the solenoid so I need to track where it is supposed to be running from. OR add a push button start which would probably be easier but I want all things working as they should and not add a rigged up ignition on top of all the mess already created.
  • DERP ALERT!! So last night I realized I have a manual....for my 88 Bronco. Definitely a palm face moment. I think the terminal on "I" side is supposed to be grounded. I'm going to check NSS tonight, same issue in my Bronco so I added a push button start for it. DOUBLE PALM FACE!! I knew I was over complicating this.
  • Sometimes you can go to a Ford dealer and they will print you a copy of that part of the system for you. I have done it in the past.

    Check the Neutral switch.
  • My 91 Ford had a starter relay/solenoid located upfront hidden next to the radiator - it's not the starter or anything you might associate with other mfg - worth a look.
  • if you can't find go to library and find a manual for a 91 F150 truck . If not maybe summit will have a running harness for a 91 F150. I have a 99 but I am sure that it not what you have. Have you check Ford to see if they still have a manual of that year. Also google for it. I got many pages.
