Done some work on the Bronco ....
#1
I was thinking on my way home from along day at work that I needed to fix my key switch in my Bronco.Confusedcratchhe: The way that I had to crank my Bronco was turn the key to ON and then push a button.(Button in Picture):hysterical: The guy that had the Bronco before Brad had put it on. The only thing that I did was just hook the two wires up at the solenoid. Turn the key started right up. Wounder why people want to do something like that?
The Wires in the picture was from the push button switch and misc wires that went no ware. My next thing to fix is my brake lights. Some crazey reason there is some kind of push button on the brake lever.(Check picture out) Going to fix that this weekend.
Yesterday I fix my seat belt. It would not go back in the holder when I would take it off. Took it apart, clean the inside and bam :rubeyes: it started working.
Then when I had the hood up on the Bronco I was looking around under the hood and found that the OEM wire harness had a peace off paper on it and it say FOMCO.:biggthumpup: I had never seen that on one before. Pretty cool. (check pic out) I hope that I have not bored you with my progress on my Bronco. More to come

I personally like a push button starter. not if you are trying to restore it but I think in general they are cool. as far as the button on the brake pedal does the switch operate the brake lights? nice EB

Its nice to see progresss. The push butten may have been an attempt to fix a no start problem. People often think its the switch when its usualy the relay.
Keep us post on your progress.

the FOMOCO sticker on your wiring harness has a part # beginning with C9 which means 1969 so it must be the original harness. cool bronco. i like it.
