What column switches fit?

[magpies]

Mine has lost the connection turning on dip/head. 12v in on the grey but not switching on the blue to the dip/head switch. Side lights working OK. Also the indicator switch is a bit intermittent switching on the near side indicators. I do not mind having non original switches.

Early Sierra but getting a bit scarce/expensive these days...... faulty switch


Seems like anything off a clapped out old Sierra is now from a Sierra Cosworth and four times the price

Any chance of dismantling and giving the contacts a clean?

I have never looked into it Mick but if the column is Escort sourced why couldn't Escort ones be made to fit, especially as yours needn't have an original column shroud? (you know Escorts don't you!)

I know the price of everything Escort is out of this world

Thought it was Sierra?

Escort switches have been mentioned in the past but possibly need a little bending, basically same switch but Escort had a deeper dish or flatter steering wheel?

Guess switches would be Mk3 or 4 so not quite as silly as Mk1 or 2 .....

I had this a while ago. Looky here
Fitting relays meant that nothing has burnt out in the years since.

I've had a look in my garage and found this collection...



Some fit, some don't but it looks like I have two spare sets of correct ones. Do you need both sides?
You are welcome to have a set (free). Send me a DM with your address and I'll pop in post.
Do a good turn for someone in return.
