westy wiring help??
hey, iv just aquired an 1989 westfield 1600 crossflow, having a few issues with the wiring and wondered if any of you guys could help...
first of all i noticed the back lights dont work at all...
secondly when i put the side lights on the fuel gauge goes up to full...
and thirdly when i select either indicator the side lights come on!
i have checked all the earths i think and no problems there... maybe a crossed wire down the line??
i believe the engine and loom are from a mk2 escort so would appreciate if anyone could send me some wiring diagrams?
thanks in advance
Roy

Hi, firstly all earths will be brown.
then you need a multi meter to check things.
clean the fuses and holders especially if its the original mk2 fusebox with ceramic style fuses.
