Okay here was a fun one to deal with on the side of the highway... I cruzin home from work. All of a sudden everything shut off. Like I turned the key off. no fuel pump noise nothin flat out just dead. So I really pissed / concerned cause now i'm on the shoulder of the road scratching my head. I turn the key nothin so I'm thinking okay the ign. switch is messed up. So I go to remove all useless trim thats now in my way from tearing into this thing with a leatherman in hand. I go to remove the harness thats on the column and well low and behold terminal and everything comes out with the harness connection. and this little black plastic peice with a contact plate are now in my hand.
I was stumped at that point so i took the contact plate and started to make contact with terminal and click fuel pump turns on. I was excited at that point power is good so I went to look for some handy cable ties and i find a couple. clamp the contact peice back to the terminal and I'm in buisness. got it started made the rest of my ride home.
So now, is the terminal peice that the column harness plugs into any ideas if its replaceable or does it get replaced as an assembly? people from ford just blew me off without checking the part and told me obsolete.
