fuse box

[joedrake23]

would anyone be able to tell me how to stop water getting through to the fuse box on my fiesta? thanks

Easy answer. Plug the leak. In the interim, try to wedge a piece of plastic sheet behind the fuse compartment - use it as an 'umbrella' to divert the water. Ultimately, locate the source of the leak and fix!

on my fiesta the fusebox was in the dash. If thats getting wet then its likely your heatercore is gone :/ does your coolant level go down? make sure the heater is open (hot) to find out.

leaky sunroof ?

[joedrake23]

doesnt have a sunroof but has a crack in windscreen, would that cause it?

[GoNz0]

it could do, or you may have a hole between panels somewere, shove some loo roll inside the screen under the crack, check next time it rains or get the hose out if it aint frozen

if the loo rolls wet you found the leak.

ok thanks mate thats a pretty cool tip

[GoNz0]

daft question, but theres a few versions of fezzy still on the road, where is your fusebox ?

[joedrake23]

mk2, its just below and to the right of the steering wheel

yeh i had one, either a bad window seal (possibly thanks to said crack) or its rusted through around the front wing to bulkhead area.
