Hi all,

I've a MKIV Fiesta but the middle brake light has been removed. In order for the car to pass it's NCT (Ireland's MOT) I need to refit one.

Does anyone know how to wire one of these?

I've got the unit and bench tested it with a 9v battery so it's working fine.

However I cannot work out how to wire it in.

Can anyone advise as to how to wire this in correctly?

There are four connection points on the unit (2 on each side)




I know that the Breakers Yard has written MK5 year on the unit but it's the same part as the one for the MKIV.

I'd really appreciate some help on this!

i am taking that you fiesta is built to european standards where the brake lights  are separate from the turn signal lights..

if so.. use the same wire as the brake light bulbs...

probably a green and red striped wire... sorry i only have a diagram handy for a 1991 model..

when the third tail light was removed.. did someone cut the wires also??? and remove them completely from the body of the car???


warning...  the tail light wires show as RED and green.  

oops.. this is a 1991 model with the high mounted stop light in the rear window...  where is yours mounted???

the wiring should be the same.. this is a US spec car..
