electrical problems 95 f150

Hi,

First time poster. I got a weird one that we cant figure out and I hoping at least one of you have ran into this.

Ive got a 1995 f150 300 6cyl 5spd. The blower motor, turn signals, speedometer, odometer all go out at the same time. Also the abs and brake lights come on as well. Now, when I turn off the truck and turn it back on everthing is fine. This happens when the engine is cold and hot and completely at random. It will happen as soon as I turn on the engine some times or it will run for hours and not do it. Its really frustrating.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Rodger

My money is on a bad/faulty ignition switch or actuator. It's located on top of the steering column. Some good info in here: Steering column teardown and ignition actuator replacement in a 1995 (92+ Columns) - FSB Forums
