Dan Pantages Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 (edited) OK, I have the new tank in. Now I need a new fuel gauge which I am trying to install. The Series 4 is impossible to work on under the dash. I managed after 3 hours to get the old gauge out. In doing so I managed to break the wiper switch. The wiring is so tight with no way to get through the jumble of wires. When I did get the gauge undone the wires are so short to it that with it half way out the wires came off. But right now I need to find out a source for the dash switches. Picture attached. This has been a project I wish I hadn't had to do. I can't find any shop here that would be willing to do the job.

Dan Pantages Posted September 15 Author Share Posted September 15 They do look close, the wiper one is close enough for me. About 25/32" x 1-9/16". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamScotticus Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 (edited) Another one. Can see the back side on these pics. https://www.historicmotorsport.net/shop/used-parts/electrical-used-parts/reconditioned-mk1-escort-wiper-switch/ Another. I'd say the bezel is a match https://www.retrofordinternational.com/ford-fiesta-mk1-new-genuine-ford-rear-screen-wash-switch-6601-p.asp It may be possible English Ford used Lucas. I wouldn't rule it out. Are you able to find a part number on the housing? Edited September 15 by IamScotticus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
