Ford WindstarIntroduced in the mid-1990s, the front-wheel-drive Ford Windstar minivan campaigned with an emphasis on, and reputation for, safety. And in the hotly contested family minivan market of the time, that was an especially solid piece of ground to be on. As long as buyers didn't need to haul adults in back on a regular basis, the Windstar served a family's needs just fine.
I took a look in my Haynes manual.
They list 10 separate grounds... A-J.
A. Starter mounting bolt
B. Right front of Engine compartment near the battery
C. Lower left front of engine
D. Right front of engine compartment on upper radiator support.
E. Left front of engine compartment Upper radiator support
F. Bottom of cowl panel
G. Rear of left fender apron
H. Behind bottom of right cowl panel
I. Left rear corner of cargo area near rear lamp assembly
J. Under center rear of vehicle on rear cross member.
Does anyone have a similar list of ground locations for a windstar? In particular a 1998 windstar?
Thanks in advance

after doing alot of looking around I found that there is a chassis computer behind the jack storage compartment. There is 6 main ground connections that I found
in the vehicle
one under the rear computer,
one on the right pillar at the rear lift gate,
two on the the driver side under the cover by the hood latch,
and two on the the front under the hood around the battery.
