Ignition relay? Most of that stuff goes on Fiesta MK3's when the ignition relay pops, although, like you say, the car still drives fine. Sorry dont know much bout Escots, just a suggestion, try swapping it out

I think the ignition relay is the big black relay on the top of the fusebox to the right. Location 1.
