Re: 1988 Ford Ranger No spark
We received the new inertia switch, but instead of installing it. We chose to jump the wires plugging into the existing switch, so the switch is unplugged and wires are jumped.
Truck has been running every-time we ask it to start .....keeping fingers crossed, planning on returning new switch. So do not throw your truck away, try to bypass the inertia switch....under dash passenger side. |

Re: 1988 Ford Ranger No spark
Yeah, I had the same problem with no spark until the key was switched off then one flash. Damn near pulled my hair out over this problem. Turns out it was a fuse link issue in my case. The voltage was right, just would not creat a spark with the load of the starter running. I hope this helps.

Re: 1988 Ford Ranger No spark
same problem going on here with 88 ranger 2.3l efi but to make it worse some tweekers got ahold of it before i did and the vacuum lines are a mess and i have a now have mass of wiring coming off the starter silenoid and going into relay and fusable links and god knows where else. i would love a pic of the components properly hooked up on the passenger side firewall. I am not sure whats what and where it goes. I'm not a mechanic nor a demolition expert and this truck needs both

Re: 1988 Ford Ranger No spark
I was ld for around $100 you can convert to distributor with points and condenser with vacuum , and get rid of all that electronic ign. crap. I don't think ford thought this one thru .
