The lack of green wires on your ignition switch is normal if your truck has the full gauge cluster instead of warning lights.



Also, in taking a second look at the photo of your ignition switch connector you posted earlier, I noticed that your pink ignition wire appears to be connected to the "G-1" ground terminal instead of where it's supposed to be on the "IGN" terminal. The pic you found online does have the pink wire in the correct location.
