when the fuse blows is it black or does it have a hairline crack in the element?

i have got a w reg 2000 year ford escort 1.6 16v zetec, has been fine untill the other day when starting cold the autochoke is not kicking in so it is running juddey for about 30 secs to 1 min untill it warms up any ideas? i have replaced the mass air flow sensor yesterday and it is more reponsive to drive but still having start up problems... cheers Dave

i am sure this has to be pluged into a ford pc, so they can re-program it without that active

if that fails then drill a pilot hole in the center of the bolt then use a easy out!

make sure aerial wire is 2.5cm away from metal work

i solder all the time working on cars and never had a problem so i would say solder and heatshrink all joints

Hi i only post on here when i have time but i just wanted to share my website with you all. have a look and check out some of the videos if you have time. nice and easy fit on a escort! www.laserstar-diffusers.co.uk if a few of you are interested i could do a discount for a group buy PM me if this interests you! many thanks and merry christmas to you all Cheers Dave

the blue wire is a run wire that runs to the clocks which gives 12v when engine is running if there is no power on that wire it will bring on battery light

the blue wire runs to the clocks +12v when engine running

(indercators normally blue/red blue/white) powers (+12v bottom of fuse box red cables) (+12v switched bottom of fuse box or ignition barrel thick black wire) doors (black/red) (Black green) bottom of fuse box! rest is easy

plug under seat, loom chaffing about 3-4 inchs from air bag modual drivers side of dash ) they run the loom very tight next to the metal bar

it sounds like the switch on the back of the lock barrel (drivers door) for the alarm
