hey folks! my interior dash lights and rear, exterior lights suddenly stopped working at the same time the other day on our 2010 Connect. after reading a few posts i tried replacing the Headlight/Headlamp Switch and it unfortunately didn't do the trick. the brake lights still work in the back, just not the regular lights, so not ideal for driving at night! any other ideas before i give up and take it in to the shop? thanks so much i appreciate your help! nick

Thanks so much for your helpful responses! And thanks for the kind words BSUPC. I started with the easiest fix and figure I'll work up from there. So far I bought the special brush and cleaned the terminal posts and clamps. I added the felt washers and bought some grease/lube that should help the connection stay solid for a while. Happy to report it's started fine ever since! Hope this remains the case. If not I'll get into the more detailed fixes you guys gave. Thanks again!

Hey All! I'm having an issue I've read a bit about but haven't been able to fix! My Transit has seemingly random issues starting. Will be fine for a week. Then leave you stuck in a parking lot for 10min. Then be fine again. Had it serviced twice, parts in ignition replaced, same problem. I posted a video of this issue happening on youtube called- Ford Transit Connect 2010 starting issue Any ideas really appreciated! Thanks!
