hi took my 96 escort for mot to be told it had only failed on fog lights and the horn being rather random. On closer inspecton the fog light switch light was on permenant and the heated front and rear screen switchs were flashing randomly later when i tried the car if i pushd the fog light switch with the lights off the full beam woulld come on. generally the whole dash is acting very strange this fault hadnt been noticed until the mot.any ideas
