Asked by Joshua Jan 10, 2019 at 11:21 AM about the 1988 Ford Ranger XLT Extended Cab 4WD SB

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a weird problem where my something in my
electronics for my fuel pump and radio works
occasionally I'm not too sure where this issue may
be but I found a direct correlation with my fuel
pump working and my radio working but then at
times they both won't I'm thinking it's maybe my
ignition. Any ideas would be helpful

Can I ask how to check the ignition? I have looked at the wires in the past and I've just had one hell of a time trying to figure out what does what at that area. I'll look into the other connections in the meantime thanks.

I'll dig into it a bit more and send some more pictures, I can say I've taken that clip off in the past looking for possible corrosion and stuff didn't notice anything looking burnt to me but can't say I was looking for burn marks
