Headlight ground issue

Postby Jake.tbn » Sun Sep 22, 2024 8:46 pm

My headlight stopped working a while back and I have replaced the bulbs yet no avail. I have checked all the fuses and they seem ok so I bought a forscan tool. I have ran diag on it and it is producing a ground issue. How would I go about solving this problem?

You've not told us what model Transit you have..??Mk6 or Mk7..?? Euro-3, 4 or 5..?? FWD or RWD..??

There's a multitude of Earths on the later Transits...you need to check all of them.
