When that happened i lost Wipers/washers, heater, powerwindows/sunroof, headlights and seatheaters.
mirrors, parklights front and rear, indicators heat in fornt and rear windows, foglights, sentral locking works fine..
engine starts and runs fine, but since the mother of all rain was over here i had to go home on a towtruck

efery time i turn on the ignition the headlights fet washed

Checked fuses roadside, but not the relays (the rain remember)
Got dried up now, so i'm off to check the rest of the fuses and relays.
Any idea what went wrong anyone?

Edit: wrong language
Thanks to the worthless mechanic that mounted the extralights at the dealer where i bought the Focus...
This was my £50 ride home tonight

A ground wire from the battery that went into the wire harness where the socalled "mechanic" put the relay for the lights was put in tension under the relay.. thus as the vibrations had a fair go at it..finally gave in tonight...

Let's just say i'm glad the Ba**ard lives 800km away right now.

So this little wire did cause havoc with my electronics No current to any of the fuses in question.. worth noting just in case...
