Mk5 Escort front fog wiring


esport

Recommended Posts

I have a ´94 Escort which don´t originally have front fogs. Now I´m trying to get them working, but I can´t find the connectors for the switch and fogs. Should I even find them or differs the harness between the models?

 

 

they might not even exist within your models harness to begin with given that it was never equipped with them.

 

easier option is to just buy a basic foglight wiring kit of eGay (universal type) and wiring in your own choice of switch.

So can I even use the fusebox? Is there place for front fog relays? And to which connector the fog wires goes?

 

probably not, depends how low spec your loom is

 

could you not just wire it up manually like you would a standard circuit with a standalone switch, thats what i did on my mk3

 

yes of course

OK, now I have a wiring kit bought. The switch that came with the kit contains three poles (?), one to ground, one to relay and one to park light. The original switch, that I want to use, have five poles. So I need to know what are those poles in the original one for? Some sort of a picture would be nice.

 

the remaining two poles will be for switch illumination most likely.

I think one of those is not in use. But because I don´t have original loom for the switch, I can´t look from Haynes which wire goes where by colour. So there is two narrow poles and three wide in the switch. What goes where :unsure:

 

easiest way to be sure is to carefully dismantle the switch itself and visually confirm the points within.

 

they usually come apart pretty easily with some gentle persuasion.
