'79 Ford F-150 Starter stuck

you could do that, but that function is already built into the ignition switch. I know electrical problems are frustrating and can be difficult to diagnose and repair, but I don't see the point in running duplicate wiring. The correct fix is to find the reason the key isn't actuating the solenoid, and its gonna take using a multimeter or at least a test light to find out what is going on. At this point in time it sounds like it could be the solenoid, but you'd have to know if the switch is even actuating the solenoid to make sure there isn't a wiring problem somewhere between the switch and the solenoid.

Thanks for the help. Thats kinda what I have been thinking about my issues, but it has a manual transmission and there are not many wires in the steering column 4 I think but the only thing that is electrical is the horn and the signal, so I guess it must be either one of those. But the horn doesn't work, not sure about the turn signals so I will start with the horn.
