How do you hotwire mercury 1993 villager van?

Answer 1

There is an ignition switch or box located above the drivers knees at the base of the steering column. It has 2 screws in it and is 4" x1 1/2 " roughly. if you take out the 2 screws and you will have to remove all the other crap in the way of this task! You will have this little box in your hands and there is a little rod that if you slide it, it will take you through all the normal key turn functions!

So slide that lever up to where all the instruments on the dash lite up and push a little farther and the car will start!

I did this because the ignition switch broke. But really what broke was the rod that is between the ignition switch and this box described above! This rod run inside the steering column... I didn't want to pull the steering wheel and try to figure that on e out!

**** Now after 6 months of starting the car this way... This box itself has crapped out! I am researching what wires to tap together to get the car to start!

I have a good battery and the lights and windows work! The harness seems to have just stopped turning on the power and running through those key functions.

constant power is white/purple

starter wire is red

starter wire #2 is red/green

ignition wire is white/red

accessory wire white/green

second accessory wire is brown

Let the testing begin!
