Title: Ultima 2.9 12v Estate 1996 Electrics
Post by samg on Dec 29^th, 2006, 2:09pm

Hi,
I have just aquired Ultima 2.9 12v Estate (120,00 miles)

I am having trouble with electrics, the radio connections had been cut off and I bought new connections from Halfords (not fitted yet) but since checking radio connections the climate control/heater blower, driver/pasenger windows + mirrors, and heated seats have stopped working.
I have changed all fuses but to no avail, is there a trip switch of some kind, fuse boxes look ok and are very dry.
I have owned a Scorpio 2.3 16v Estate (246,000 miles)for past 3 years and have solved most of it problems with the help the excellent help from fordscorpio website.

I would appreciate any assistance,

Regards,
Samg

Hi. The multiplug on the main fusebox is always a possible culprit, has happened to me among others. Take it out and check it's properly seated. Sounds like the timer module (not sure if this controls the heated seats?) isn't getting power, may be an idea to check all the fuses again, I've had them blow before and look ok.

The wiring diagrams are here (http://www.carsoft.ru/avtorepair/sierra_el.html) if it helps.

Good luck.

Regards, Bruce.
