Let me know how it goes, my 74 needs a hold down and I think they are the same as a 77. Currently using zip ties and I’m not proud.

@mseacow did you end up getting it going? If not I found a couple pictures in the 74 Chiltons manual that may help.

In the off chance you haven’t found the module yet, I did. It is mounted on a bracket near where the brake booster bolts come through the firewall. Mine is blue, or this is actually the wrong box. I regret to inform you that even viewing this thing required some uncomfortable maneuvers.

This might help you work some bypass tests or other troubleshooting if you haven’t seen it already. At about 12min in the my show a test box that has the cable vaguely going towards the middle dash area by the glovebox.

I had a few minutes this morning to poke around. I couldn’t find the location in the service manual, so I went looking on the car. I couldn’t find it under the dash on mine, but for the most part things are fully assembled. I’ll go look harder this afternoon. Unless your bypass switch is also...

I can do that, I'm just not sure if the key was worn out if a copy of that key would be any better.

I was rolling it around on dollies in between the last time it started and now. Could that have torqued up something in the steering column and it's jammed now?

This car is new to me and I only have one key.

Parked my 74 Fury a few weeks ago. Went to go fire it up today, key goes in, buzzer goes on, ignition cylinder won't turn. I jiggled the wheel to no avail. Should I spray some penetrating oil in the key hole to see if something is just bound up? What am I missing here or do I have a...
