Noobie needs wiring mod help (please keep this here)
Lets try this again and see if it stays out if the engine section. Lol.
Hey guys and gals, new guy here. Need some help. I have a 93 bronco. Hear me out before you say I'm in the wrong place. But I'm working on modding a 2018 super duty dash into my bronco. I've been trying to find good wiring diagrams for the dash. But google seems to be failing me. Wrong years pull up when I search. The wire colors Don't match what I have.
Right now I'm concentrating on the steering column so I can meld the new controls into the old truck. The main one I'm trying to figure out is if I can get the new ignition switch to work with the old system. I don't really need the whole chip reader thing so I can shortcut around it if I have to. But if I can keep it all intact why not. I know that finding info on the security stuff is pretty difficult but if someone knows what does what it would be nice to keep the security.
I'm also working on trying to find out where the gauge cluster gets all of its signals from. Do they go through the ecm first? Or do they come straight from sensors to the cluster? I'm really hoping I can swap a few sensors and get the 2018 one working with the 93 truck. I know the speedo is probably going to be the most fun one to do. But fingers crossed I can make something work. If not ill have to either figured out how to mod my old gauges into the new dash or make a full custom cluster from aftermarket gauges. That will get expensive fast.
So if any one can help me out I would truely appreciate it
