Help!! Broken wire on steering column

[scgamecock]

This black wire appears to have come out of the connector picture but i dont know which slot.  There is an empty slot but it does not have a prong in it like the others so I "assume" it shares a slot???

Once I have it identified how do I fix it????

Tthanks!

At the top of the home page, look for Mustang Data.  Click on it and you will see a link for wiring diagrams.. Click on that link and you will see links for wiring diagrams that pertain to your year, make and model..

Looks to me like it broke off the starter switch, not came out of the connector. Where does the other end go?

Do you have the link that goes to this part on RockAuto?  I am probably better off just replacing it than trying to fix it.

It goes to the fourth hole on the side of the thick black/green wire. What's broken is the ground wire. That should be a male pin, but the tip of it doesn't look right to me.

You're probably best off replacing the turn signal switch (or finding a used one and splicing in the black wire into your connector).

Looks like it is soldered to the body of the switch.  Buy new or re-solder?

The switch is under Electrical Switch & Relay -> Ignition Starter switch

They were originally riveted, it won't take much to pull a tin/lead solder connection apart. Silver solder will have a better chance of surviving, it is much stronger.
