So for example the door locks use 5 wires all pink as their main color but with different colored stripes on them(pink/green, pink/yellow, pink/red) but by now you will only find 5 pink wires... Man when I think of how thick the hrns is that goes along the top of the dash containing everything from the instrument cluster too the door locks it makes me rub my forehead thinking about it all.....So as far as giving you copies of two pages that explains what each specific wire is, where it is and what it does - I would have to say that the mantra for wiring is test twice cut once.  That means even if you find a wire with the correct colors/indicators IT ALWAYS MUST BE TESTED.  I am not joking when I say I tested EVERY wire I ever connected to inside a car short of speaker wires I pulled off of the stock speakers or deck.  Do you have a test light/volt meter and know how to use it?I have a factory 94-95 mustang bible with the wiring schematics book with it.  I have not looked at it all that much as normally when I need a wire I have a general knowledge of where it is and grab a meter and start testing.  But I would be happy to scan or give what ever info is in it that may help, again with the warning to test EVERY wire I give you.  But you will need to find the same basic thing for what ever year fox that is and then hope that the colors are not all that far off.  This will take some time but hopefully we can work through it but I make no promises that we can get it perfect.  Wiring gremlins are fun to chase when your in the car but hearing of them 2nd hand and trying to understand what is happening and what needs to happen is much harder....</blockquote>
