Electrical Nightmare
Have a 88' BII w/ 2.9 5 speed. Got every conceivable symptom of electrical problem u cud imagine for bout a week before it quit and wouldn't run. Cranks but wont run. Computer grounded from battery, battery to front near radiator, and from battery to frame, and from firewall to engine. COIL has NO SPARK and is getting 12v's on both terminals with key on. Coil is new as well as Ignition module, Ignition switch, Starter Relay, and just put a new Pick up in the Distributor(stator). Has new Battery. Both Fuel Pump and EEC Relays are new. New Plugs, Wires, Dist. Cap, and Rotor. On Compression Stroke on #1 and Rotor @ #1. Bought a new Computer for it 7 years ago and hate ta say it but it's acting jus like it did before that computer went out! Also noticed las cuple days i don't hear my fuel pump kickin' in when i turn the key. AND i tried to pull codes off the "self test" connector and it's like dead...nothing. This S********h is possessed! What gives? Anybody? Am a disabled Nam vet, am single, and get a small VA disability check each month. Can't afford another vehicle. If this little truk stays down...i stay down...Help!

This may not apply to your situation, but I’ll pass it along anyway in case it helps
Have a 2011 F350 6.2l; mainly just a plow truck now. Went to use it about two months ago - no brake lights and could not shift out of park
replaced the brake shift switch; no dice
replaced the brake shift solenoid; still no dice
While I was doing the above, battery started draining
long story short, I’m no mechanic, so took it to the Ford dealer. Problem with everything was a few broken wires somewhere. All fixed for about $400; no issues since
good luck
