Reload this Page Electrical problem on 88 Ranger

Ford Ranger More than two decades ago, the Ford Ranger debuted as an answer to various compact pickup trucks being made available by Japanese automakers. The Ranger was cleanly styled and offered with a choice of a 6-foot or 7-foot bed. Ford boasted that the Ranger had more interior room than the best-selling imports and that 4-by-8-foot construction material could be carried in the bed.

Default Electrical problem on 88 Ranger
I'm looking for some help. I have a 88 Ranger with an electrical problem. I can't seem to figure it out. For starters there are two Circuit Breakers in the fuse panel. When the battery is hooked up these become very hot to touch very quick. I disconected the battery removed the circuit breakers went to ford. Asked the service department what system they would be used in . First I got a deer in the headlight look. Then I got it's for powered mirrors,windows,ect.. Told them it had no power options then got the we dont know answer. The alternator has been removed and checked as well as the starter and the check good. even with the circuit breakers removed from the fuse panel the baterry drains to nothing. If anyone could help please send me a email or drop me a line here.

Thanks

Steve
