Spent a couple of hours earlier today, washing, waxing and polishing the zed. Then went for a spin into town to see the local League of Ireland football club Sligo Rovers actually beat Everton 2 - 0 (Ok they were probably the Everton reserves !). Anyhow afterwords it was getting dark, went to drive the zed home and no dips, rear lights, parks or illumination of the clock clusters. I guess I blew a fuse when I was reconnecting the rear fog lamp switch (probably incorrectly) after I had been swapping clock clusters. I had to leave the car in town, so will collect it tomorrow in the bright.

 

Assuming its a simple thing of the problem being a fuse, can anybody point me in the right direction as to which fuse and where is it located.

 

I did a search but I couldn't find anything to point to which fuse etc. I have taken the following images from one thread and hopefully somebody will guide me.

I'd guess the fuse is the box in question above located in the engine bay and if it is, would it control all the stuff I listed? Also if it is, what amp fuse should I get?

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Gary - symptoms seem very, very similar and doing exactly what I did.

 

(and I swear I did a search before posting :blushing: - the pics I posted are from a thread in 2006 I think)

Had similar problem with mine before, try the 'clear lense illumination'

fuse.

Also, try waggling the hazard switch about, sometimes it gets jammed

and then affects the other lights.

As Car Mad suggested in the link posted by Gary, it was the fuse in the drivers side footwell - top row, third from the left & 10amp.

 

Sideshowbob - I think that we are talking about the same fuse in the footwell.

sorry to hijack, but what is the skid control relay for? was esp an option? sure i heard that somewhere...

Yes Gary - thanks for the pointer.
