Ignition switch wire identification

Okay first of all I have searched ALOT for the info im after and I can't find it, Im pretty good at navigating forums but maybe I'm just missing something completely.

Anyway. I'm trying to identify what each wire is on the ignition switch. I've found a few wires on a few diagrams and what not but Im not sure if they are the same since everything I've found isn't my specific year.

I see seven wires.
And I'll include what ive found, if someone could
1. Identify the wires I'm missing
2. Confirm the wires I have identified are correct or correct them if theyre wrong.

brown/red
brown/white
brown/?
blue/red-accessory
black/yellow-ignition 1
black/white-starter
black/red-ignition 2








Thank you for any help!!

Are you working on the 86??

Just what are you trying to accomplish ??

Get yourself a Copy of the EWD for your year truck saves so much time.

Yes i am working on my 86. And I'm trying to eliminate using my key all together. I want to make a switch panel, like what you'd see in a rally car or something, to control turning on the accesories and a push start.

I have a FSM with some wiring diagrams in it but nothing that is specific to the ignition switch. Im not really that good at deciphering wiring diagrams to begin with so I was hoping someone could just quickly identify each wire if they had the knowledge on hand.

And before anyone says it, Im not scared of theft. I live in a small mountain town, my truck is never parked anywhere that is suceptable of theft. ANd I'll make a hidden kill switch that only I'll know where it is.
