Guest Cooderkey Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Hello Craig. I don't know if this information is of use to you, but, the wiring that runs under both seats to the airbag controls & pretensioners, is yellow. If someone has ripped these out from behind the dash, it may compound your problem. Alongside the accelerator, there is aside kick panel. Remove this panel, and follow the yellow wiring up to the dash, and see if anything has come apart. If it looks like someone has gone under the seats, try and lift the carpet, or see if you have continuity, from behind the panel, by the accelerator, across and under the seat where you should be able to see the yellow plugs that pull apart. If you need information like this, it is always best to let everyone know which year/type/model Escort you have. The info I have given you is for a MkVIor MkVII 1997, same as mine, but it might be totally irrelevent, when applied to your motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cooderkey Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Hi Craig, PLEASE DISCONNECT THE BATTERY, before doing any continuity tests etc. Cheers, Burt. ( In sunny Llandudno ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Craig2143 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Thanx for the reply, i have an 89 mk4 the yellow cable has been pulled from the connector as the black connector is still on the end of the yellow cable they pulled out but i cant see where it connects to on the ignition loom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
