escorts and fiestas are known for fox box problems using causing the lights to play up!although it tends to effect the heater fan more in the fiestas!more then likely a crap earth!i would check the fuse box for any melted signs around the relays/fuses!

yea the fuel pump ones melted but ive found a new fuse board on the internet are they easy to fit tho?
