    Anyone have a wiring diagram for a 72 Maverick? I will have to trace down the path from the solenoid switch into the dash area due to some clown hacking up the wires to put in his great stereo system. What a hack job!

    Success! After tracing down the wires and replacing various elements, I got power to the starter finally.Thanks to all who helped on this. The diagram was awesome. Just out of curiousity, does anyone know what color the wires to the radio are? I found 2 white/purple wires split and spliced together used a butt plug. The diagram did not show a radio on the schematic.

    I did not find the radio wires either (someone been cutting up and bypassing almost everything) so I just placed a new wire from the + side of the starter solenoid, found a good ground under the dash and voila I have a working stereo!

    I know this doesn´t answer your question, but at least it´s something if you want the boombox working in an instant:bananaman...

    I am concerned about where those wires go and what they feed. I have identified all but a few. The last thing I need is a massive short and melted insulation.
