The first step is to check the power supply and earths at each lamp with a multimeter -- glass fibre bodies are very prone to earthing
problems.
Is the fuse box the original Ford item with ceramic fuses ? if so the fuse box is the next suspect Escorts of this era suffered badly from
corroded fuse boxes, apart from holding the fuses the fuse box on these cars acted a as a main junction box for all the electrics.
