Hi I've got an 89 f150 5.0 five speed.

I've been having to start the truck with a screw driver for alittle while and finally decided to take a look.

I'm going to replace all of the fusible links next to the solenoid because almost all of them are blown up.

Now on my year truck it looks like all of the fusible links go into 4-5 yellow wires that are hooked to the hot side solenoid.

And then there is a green 14 amp fusible link right off of the hot side solenoid also.

I want to make sure all of the fusible links are in the right position before I replace them all.

Truck still starts with several of them blown just not with the ignition.

 

Yeah, a blown FL could easily be your starting problem. All FL wires go the the battery side of the starter solenoid. Another way to look at it is they're hooked straight to the battery.

 

Cool thanks for the reply! My cd finally got done downloading for alldata()

Have a diagram now to confirm this.
Thanks again!
