Hi I own a 1997 scorpio 2.9i cosworth and my front lights are not working I have no headlights, sidelights main beam or front fog lights. I have checked all the fuses and I have replaced the central fuse box with a brand new one. Can anyone help me with any ideas? And I also need a full wiring diagram for this car if anyone can direct me to one it would be fantastic Thanks a lot

Make sure that the multiplug on the main fuse box is placed in its locating lugs correctly. It is very simple but very easy to miss. Get in there with a torch and make sure before going any further with wiring issues.

Sounds more like the rotary headlight switch on the dash, take it out and have a look at the back of it, they melt quite easily
