Are the fuse boards unique to the cosworth or are there one from other model the same cheers andy

 

Any one ,as i know they are not the best somebody must have had a problem

 

Compare the number (written on the box) with a box from a RS2000 MK5 (or newer)

Maybe a full options RS2000 has the same

 

Rs 2000 are the same

SON OF A BITCH i knew this was going to cause me my biggest issue are they the same big and small turbo?

 

Big, small turbo The same

Any escort Mk5 or Mk6 high trim level fusebox will do the job,you may have to add some relays for the escos but the boxes are all the same.....

You can tell a High level fusebox by a small white paper sticker on the front face next to the fuses(the ones that it hasn`t rubbed off )

The sticker will say:

Rhd High if it`s a high trim level model.......or Rhd low if it`s the povo model...

 

u the f#@king man mate

 

Cheers Fella...

A lot of people don`t realise that the Escos is basically just a short wheelbase Saffy with bit`s raided from various parts bins......the problem is that a lot of so called "Cossie Experts" make out that it`s rocket science and everything is "special" on them(For their own ends obviously) when in reality the Escos is just a quickly cobbled together amalgamation of existing ford bits.......

As a genuine enthusiast i try to cut through all the bullshit and save owners as much hassle(And money) by telling the truth and sourcing bits for them at right money....

Here is some examples..........

A user on here contacted me as he was struggling to get heater control knobs for his Escos and a well known E-Bay "Specialist" told him that they were Escos only and would cost a fortune as they are now unavailable...

After i had told him they are actually Std Mk3 granada,he managed to get a set from his local scrappy for £3....

Another scam is Heater boxes.........you will pay upto £200 from a breaker or on E-Bay for a "Genuine" Escos heater box....

It`s actually a Saffy box with the flap controls swapped side to side.....£20 in a scrappy and about an hour to split it and do the job...

Unfortunately there is a lot of bullshit that follows Cossies about....

 

Thanks for that have realised alot ot the bits are robbed ,but was not sure on box for example i was after some small turbo door rubbers(the ones that trap between door a pillar and ford kept getting me one that did not run back down centre pillar, but these are just the mk6 part with no cossie price tag .
Information shared might keep another car on the road many thanks

 

i put a genuine heater box on ebay once and couldnt even get £30 for it! so i removed the matrix and binned the rest
