Sorry gordy, only joking. Sure someone on here can help you, looks like some kinda short circuit going on as you say its only occuring under wet or damp conditions, how about WD40'ing the main looms under the hood ? Might stop the water ingress

When I had my 16v I lost all my check lights, turned out to be the reverse light switch had gone so check the connections on there

Put a volt meter across the battery engine off/idle/3k, if all looks ok, try it the next time its going trippy.

bad earth imho but dont ask me where
either that or you've got the ford escort rear light bug, where when they indicate the break light flashes in time with the indicator and when they break the indicator comes on :shock:
