Red face Need Tailgate Wiring Diagram

Does anyone knoww here I can get a good picture diagram or at least something that shows were everything in the tail gate of my 1995 Bronco goes?

The guy I bought it from thought the motor was bad so he pulled it out to have it checked and turned out it was fine, but when I went to put it back I found out he pulled the relay out also, so now I have a bunch of wires back there and have no idea were the relay mounts to or what wires go to what.

I tried going to helminc.com and they say there is no info available for my application. So if anyone can either post or email me a diagram I would really appriciate it. Thanks in advance

I have a wiring diagram set for 1990. I don't know if it is the same as for a 1995, though. If someone knows this, and it is, I can look for what you need and scan it and send it to you.

Does anybody know if the 1990 schematic would be the same?

Wiring diagrams don't usually limit to one area of the mechanical assemblies but I can give you these.




Bronco, the wiring an electronic components didn't change much if at all. The rear defroster was added but much earlier than your 90 so the diagrams should be the same.

Thank you for the diagram greystreak92, but it is to small, I tried making it larger by saving it to my pictures, but it just fuzzes out when I do that. I cant tell where the relay goes in it. If you or anyone else has a better scan or one of the parts and one of the wiring I would greatly appriciate it? Thank you for all you help on this. If you need a email to email it to me just say so. Thanks

Hello:
Mine has the 5.0, auto, and I dont think it has california emissions. But really all I need is the wiring pretaining to the rear gate. Thank you

Will this help? It's the tailgate schematic for a 1990, from the factory Ford wiring diagram book. If you need it bigger, send me a PM with your e-mail and I will send it to you in a larger size.

Thank you, boy they dont make it to easy to tell were everything goes, but I think with everything you guys have given me, I can figure it out.

Do you know can the relay still be bought at either a parts store or the dealer?

You all have been a big help. Thanks again
