Default MK5/6 escorts and the escos similarities

I'm having trouble with a dodgy boot release switch and a go slow rear wiper .

Did the mk5/6 normal escorts come with these(rear wiper for sure but what about boot release?) and will I find something vaguely useful in a haynes manual for them.

I'm really after a wiring diagram showing the wiring so I can check it without pulling it all out. ALl the wiring diagrams I have seen are for the engine management.

common fault on the mk6. mine used to do all the time as well.. mine seemed to be a problem with the wiring at the top of the boot leaving the cars roof.. where the hinges are.. might be a bad earth.. as you pushed the boot open it would suddenly be ok

cure was to sell it and get the 200

As above, the loom in the "shut" area will be breaking.... its probably only hanging on by 2 or 3 strands of the core...
