Inertia Switch

I bought a 87 F150 p/u that has had the Inertia Switch plug and wires cut. I have found 2 wires that look like they have been "hot wired" to another wire in the wiring harness. My question is how do I know what wires were the Inertia Switch wires and what can I do to just try to get around this to diagnose the engine, (get that part out of the diagnosis). Thanks for your help.
