    electrical problems RND 2

    ok, so i still can't get my car to turn over with key.
    it arrived here with some half ass push button starter wired directly to the starter solnoid to start car with key in run position.

    when the key was used by itself and how it should be nothing would happen.
    my engine harness had one burned out fusible link+other iffy stuff.

    yesterday and today i swapped both my engine and dash harness from another same year 5.0.

    still no key start. i turn the key-can hear the fuel pump turn on and fuel pump relay clicks.. thats it.

    any suggestions? i am thinking maybe the computer may be bad or something?

    my car apparently had the same problem because my car has a push button start.I don't have power to the re/green wire that goes to the solenoid when I turn the key forward.

    I haven't had time to fix that yet but it works fine with the button
    88 GT...and some boost

    Is the ingintion switch engaging correctly intermally? The reason I ask is because I bought a car with a simular problem and who ever had it before me took apart the switch and reassemled it incorrectly. I shot wires for a few days for nothing. It got power in some parts of the switch that is what through me.

    Did you check what I suggested in the other thread? Do you have power into, then out of the clutch interlock switch?
