Nico. Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 right - turned my car on, it failed to kick in properly, so i started it again and gave it some revs and started fine, turned lights on and after 1 second if that they both went at the same time... correct me if i am wrong but that seems to be they both fused? the fuses i need are 10 amp (which i have spare) and the fuses in question are 14 and 15 (correct me if i am wrong) the question i need answering is 1) how do you get the fuses out without braking them?! i aint a fiddly finger guy and i cant pull them out, and 2) which are the two in question? not a clue which fuses are which (number wise) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico. Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 appears to be abit of a useless thread this now, after i couldnt get sleep thinking about it i went down and sorted it out!!! the fuses were all in good nick, but i think from it struggling to start, and me re-booting it with abit of wack, the circuit seems to have either shorted somewhere, or its 'over-powered' (i forgot the term for that now i come to type it up!!) but it had resulted in the filaments in the bulbs being reduced to well, pretty much nothing AND a smashed sidelight (which was a pain to get out!) could this be a potential future issue? IMO its a one off but i cant be too sure :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyb Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Normally when a light fuse goes it takes out the front and rear lights down one side of the car so you have a least one headlight working. Are your xenon headlights wired through one fuse? Are they O.E. or after-market. If gen Ford I would certainly enquire about this, bit risky both going off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
