I have a 1988 mercury cougar 5 litre v8 and it doesn’t start. Which of the following problems could it be? Wiring harness repair kit, ignition switch or solenoid. Any help would greatly appreciated. I know their was a recall on the ignition switch back in 1996. tyvm.

If you really want to know why it won’t start then you will have to have it towed to a shop because there could be 20 guesses and all could be wrong.
