Up until the dash replacement the 82 Mustang 5.0 ran great. While I was exchanging the dash I noticed that a wire had come loose or just fallen off. and I am not sure where it goes and the car rolls but it will not start. It is a thick yellow wire with a small metal clip so I think that it may have fallen out of a harness. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Depending on where it is in the harness should show you pretty much where it went. The large 12ga yellow should be s feeder either to the fuse box or the key switch. They are also used on the passenger side for the rear windo defrost circuit.
