I think it might help if you would state the general area of each of those pics(Behind glove box etc. Have you been looking at factory wiring diagrams?

Look here(not mine but helped me)-- http://seabiscuit68.tripod.com/

Mmmmm.....title says "column plug area"........

Have searched all day....seems Ford was a little vague...everything found were schem. Covering mustang, bronco and f100.....same schem.

I guess I can whittle down the possibilities

There are 8 wires that come from signal switch...the plug only hold 6 so do the other 2 go to the two wire plug in pic#3..... If so which two?? I'm thinking the 2 horn wires??

Blue-yellow is the wire that goes to the horn. It looks like that connector was swapped from a different year or something. Don't worry about the size difference.

White-blue is right front turn signal. The 2nd wire is for the turn indicator in the dash cluster and it also connects to the hazard switch.

Red wire goes to brake light switch.

Yellow wire goes to headlight switch. It supplies power to the horn circuit.

Blue wire goes to turn signal flasher.

White-red wire is probably the oil pressure sender wire.

Blue-red is cluster lighting.

The 2-pin connector goes to the rear turn/brake lights.

Yellow-black or green-orange is left side rear.

Green or orange-blue is right side rear.

Don't know if this helps you. It is from a 66 I just redid the column on. This is the wire locations coming out of the column.

Blue with red is cluster illumination. In this case, it's for the PRNDL indicator, if so equipped. Not all EB's had lit indicators though I don't think, but the wire is usually there.
Same color for all the dash lights, including the switch light-bars on '73 and later trucks.

The Red w/black should be from the brake light switch into the turn signal switch. Then out through both of the turn signal wires.

Did you say what year Bronco you have? With all the cluster..., it looks like a '73! Seems like nothing but trouble with that year.

Good luck.

Paul
