I seem to be having issues with the ignition switch, my guess is the button that the ignition lever in the steering column pushes to start the motor is failing, it works most of the time but sometimes after multiple stops and starts I get a "no start" and have at times resorted to jumping the ignition relay with a screwdriver.

I am thinking about installing a "start button" but am unsure what a good way of doing this is, any help would be much appreciated.

also Miesk5 would you happen to have a good steering column diagram?

Yo T,

95 Bronco Steering column teardown & ignition actuator replacement by KC200787

Just in case;

92-96 Bronco Column Shift Selector Tube Replacement by 1elevenblog

96 Bronco 

Section 11-04: Steering Column
1996 F-150, F-250, F-350, Bronco, F-Super Duty Chassis Cab and Motorhome Chassis Vehicles Workshop Manual
DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY

http://www.diesel-dave.com/vehic/manual/stj/stjb4016.htm

96 is same as most earlier years especially 92-96, except for:
92 through 95 uses the Electronic Engine Control, version Four (EEC-IV, aka On Board Diagnostics (OBD-I)) engine management computer
96 uses the OBD-II (EEC-V) engine management computer;
4WABS (93-96);
RABS (87-92);
Air Bag (94-96);
3 ***** Automatic Locking Hubs (Built from May 95 through 96); Spark Plug Wire Routing & Firing Order (The firing order for 1987-1993 5.0Ls is 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8. The firing order for 1994- 96 5.0Ls & all 5.8Ls is 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8.);
R134a in 94-96;
2-piece Spindle Rolling Diaphragm Seal (RDS) used on 5/95 to 96 Broncos & F Series 1/2-ton 4WD;
Mass Air Flow in 95 5.8 California models and in all 96s, other years used Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAP).
96 5.8 do not have the Air Injection (AIR), Secondary Air Injection; Pump (Smog Pump), Thermactor Air Bypass (TAB) & Thermactor Air Diverter (TAD) Solenoids; Diverter, Check & Bypass Valves, Cross-Over Tube, etc. But 96 5.0 does have the system.
The 96, Vapor Management Valve (VMV) replaces the canister purge valve (CanP valve) used in EEC IV. But manual still shows CanP valve probably because it was a late addition to the 96 production line.
The Speed Control Deactivation Switch (SCDS) in a 93 Bronco is located on the driver side frame rail, but in 94 through 96 it is on the master cylinder.
Still researching other differences.

Yo,

Freakin' site refreshed and I had to enter all the above info twice.

Push Button Start Installation in a 93 
Source: by Destructive Mechanic

he wrote "First, look at the wire color on the wire running to the small stud on the solenoid (I know, its actually a relay). Mine is red w/ a green stripe."

But it is [SIZE=20.1783px]Red/light blue[/SIZE] ..  must have blurry version like me.

..
