    Hi lads i'm hoping that someone may be able to help me here I have a mondeo TDCI 130bhp 2004 MK3 & had a new clutch fitted earlier today, this evening I noticed after dark that when the keys are removed from the ignition the lights on the radio & around the fan buttons are flickering on.................................Any ideas what would do this? Thanks again

    When you say earth strap do you mean on the battery itself?

    if you follow the earth from the battery it should be bolted to the gearbox i would check that
