Escort mk5 fuse box
got a bit of a problem with my runaround, there is full charge in the battery but when i turn on the ignition there is nothing there. No dash lights or anything. Just wondering if anyone has any idea's what it could be. Heard that its a common fault for the fuse boxes to give up on them.
Any help would be greatly appretiated

i spent ages with a multi meter on the fuse box on my mk6 van, real pain in the arse finding why the hazards and horn were not working, got there in the end though, I traced the wires back from the horn to the dea fuse holder

yea really common on MK5s..
apparently quite a usual sign of them starting to go are
the heater blower giving up or being strange.. and other little bits and pieces not wanting to work. as mentioned above!
+ to make things more difficult, i THINK there is more than one type of fusebox for them... as fudge found out when he had to replace his

Might try the repair advice, if not looks like about £230 for a new one
