Many of lights not working after attempt to change bulb for one light.
2005 Ford Streetka 1.6 petrol

The back light was not working but the brake light was (both controls use the same bulb). It was looked and an attempt was made to adjust the metal parts of the connector to allow the wire coming to the bulb to light it up as the usual red light. After the bulb was put back in the brake lights also stopped working as well as the front lights (still had indicators and side lights at front and the red back light on the other side). They said that there was no power getting to the fuses for the lights. Any ideas how it can be solved?

It's a double filament bulb , tail light and brake light . How anyone can mess replacing that and then go and butcher the wiring / connectors as well , beats me , crazy . I cannot advise after this comedy of errors and would suggest you get someone who knows what they are doing , or an auto electrician to try and fix this out . Sorry cant help you after the " work " they have done .
