![]() Not sure on a '90, but here goes. There's a large black wire with an orange stripe, comes from the connections at the starter relay, goes into the cockpit. Has a fusible link in it. Check for loose connections, or a bad/weal fusible link. Sometimes the factory solder on those links gets kinda cruddy. Don't hold me to the wire color, on my car the black/orange feeds half the fuse block (headlights, dash, radio) and the big yellow one feeds the other half, as well as the rear defroster and a few other things.
Good Luck!

![]() how are your fuses? which one (if any) are blowing? i had no instrument cluster lights for a long time, the 5 amo fuse (#13?) kept blowing. found a loose wire in my radio compaertment making contacting and causing a short.
i also had the headlight flickering problem, common is mustangs. first off, dont run your fog lights if u have them (stock wiring sucks). Second, if u have high wattage "blue headlight" bulbs, take them out immediately as the stock wiring cannot handle that power. my problem was the multifunction switch (turn signal lever). bought one on ebay for $10, solved my problem.
