Sounds like a bad earth on the side lights so they earth out through the brake lights - typical problem on Fords over here - especially Escort vans.

Yes- it was a bad earth,thanks for the suggestion.

Yep owning a Ford will teach you far more about crap electrics than owning any Italian (or French) car.

And 1968 and all years in between They do seem to have trained the monkeys better since 1998 though

Well they haven't been made by any Essex monkeys since about then - only Spanish, Belgian and German ones.

Still see plenty of Fords around with entertaining rear light performance, so the monkeys must be working in the dealerships now.
