The ground wire is melting on the 1990 F150 when trying to start the vehicle because the wrong wire is being used as a ground wire. The wires are color coded. Perhaps the factory made a mistake with how the wires were hooked up.

1990 and 1989 Jeep Cherokee Laredos wont start Battery has power Lights radio windows work What could be the problem?

I recently had this problem with another vehicle. If the vehicle will crank but not start, it may be a leaking fuel injector. A leaking fuel injector will flood the engine, not allowing it to start. This is especially true if the vehicle will not take a jump start. If you can hear the fuel pump (in the fuel tank) turn on when you first try to start the vehicle, then the fuel pump is working. It generally tries to stay on for about 5-7 seconds. If it will not crank, then it may be your starter. Hope this helps. SD
