Ignition barrel wiring

Post by Carl »

Can anyone tell me how the ignition barrel is wired up on a 1987 360 GLT? There's 4 wires that go on spade connectors on the end of the barrel, but which go where? A picture may be very helpful.

When mine got broken into they pulled all the wires off, and now I can't start the car. I dont want to go guessing just yet in case I blow something!!

Cheers

Bugger, I've just had one apart to look at. If only I'd known you needed a picture. Although I don't know which wire does what so I can't really help. :(

Thats exactly what i'm after Mac, thank you. However i dont seem to have a yellow wire - the corresponding wire on my car seems to be white. This is what mine looks like:

Hopefully your diagram will still be ok though. We'll find out on sunday :)
