  Mike:
  Thank you for your continued advice on finding my problem. Horn –
  horn
  connections – yes, I have been there - clean thoroughly and tighten
  connections. My two looks at this set up said stop and ask some
  questions.
  There was a day when picture type diagrams existed to identify what
  was
  what. This beast has a wiring harness of about two dozen wires. Many
  different colors, but I did not see any nice labels. I am familiar
  with
  corrosion’s effects especially exposed connections like to horns,
  starters,
  batteries, alternators, et al. This is why I would appreciate a
  picture
  diagram so I could pull appropriate connectors and use simple brass
  brush
  and contact cleaner to clean up.
  So my next attack point will be under the hood or dog house trying
  just to
  clean connections. The last time I got involved with such a project
  the
  older van was still directly connected to steering rods. Here all I
  see is
  hydraulic connectors. That is why I when I was already having
  something
  done by the Ford Dealer I requested them to trouble shoot this
  problem.
  Intermittent problems are always a challenge, but for somebody who
  works on
  this type vehicle, I expected an organized analysis, maybe based on
  having
  seen similar problems.
