Re: Problem with dash lights in a 1993 ford escort lx wagon 5speed 1.9L

Here are 2 diagrams that show how it works. What wires are you connecting across? The power from the rheostat goes to a secondary junction block. It's located to the right of the steering wheel under the dash. Power comes from the switch through the L/brown and red wire to the inst/pnl fuse. See if there's power at that fuse with the switch on. From there it goes to the secondary junction block which sends power to the lights and another lb/red wire that goes to a relay to operate the LCD lights. See the second diagram.
