If its anything like the Escorts are, its just undo the cowling, one screw, they pull out, unplug them and replace.

have had a look and i can see the mpg and cruise icons are there, so hopefully the indicator will work. i thought that when working on any switches on a car you would have to disconnect the battery?

if you want to get the trip computer working then you will need to get a set of clocks from a scrap car or something liike that that had the trip computer in already thats the way to get it to work

you think the fact that its bleeping means that the other components are there except the right clocks? just i can see in the lcd part the mpg and cruise icons are there lol cheers
