Im looking for an accurate wire diagram for a 55 mercury Monterey. I pulled a diagram off the net for a 55 Mercury, but the colors are different and there are a few other discrepancies. the car is in great shape and the wiring looks to be original.
Lots of incorrectly labeled wiring diagrams on the net in my experience, I try to find at least 3 and compare, also you have to take into account the age of said wires, any exposure to sun can change the color, trace some wires and see, I’ve found some to be quite different in color in a protected area.
Well worth the investment https://classiccarwiring.com/products/1955-mercury-color-wiring-diagram?_pos=1&_sid=1635a21ad&_ss=r
The stripes on my steering column wires were wiped out with age. Lucky I only had 9 or 10 wires to buzz out.
