Earth Fault?

[pm9575]

Trouble shooting required...
After a short spell in the rain, my fuse 27 blew. having replaced this - my obc does not function, and the dash board fog warning light is permanently illuminated until switched on (light goes out) .
Also my rev counter and temp gauge do not operate - every thing else is hunky dorey.
What words of wisdom duth one have?

Good grief, what a weird set of symptoms. Hope it's an earth fault, otherwise I suspect you might have a cooked loom somewhere.
Main earthing points for the dashboard area are two 6mm studs and are at the back of the glovebox area, at the top to the right, with several brown wires going to them.

I had a similar problem with an escort after a while it shorted the battery and a lot of smoke came up through the dash. I reconmend you get an auto electrion to check it out.

check the wiring that comes out of the bottom of fusebox and goes through bulkhead
