you start at the battery and if you have not got a coloured wiring diagrame use colouring in pencils to follow the wire to the clock etc
if the fuses and relays are ok etc the earth symbol is sort of like an antenna I think you may just have an earth problem so first thing to do is check all of them then the relays make up a continuity light out of a trailer bulb and wire or other such device at hand

just an on off switch thats why you dont leave them on long you switch it off after the window has cleared just a thin copper wire using 12 volts and it has a fuse named circuit breaker

are we talking demister i think the wiring contacts may have a dry solder
joint you can get a new demister fitted by an auto electrician the clock you said worked fine in the other car no power can you follow the wire back to the relay i think you will find the relay needs replacing as it is a non repairable part with that relay not working it stops the current to most of the right hand side components of the wiring diagamme

finding an electrical fault is the most frustrating thing about cars
all you can do is focus on finding the power wire and the earth then check each device in turn cig lighter is in that loop as well you could buy a loom but you will need to check that it is all ok as well luckily your car is still drivable ![]()

not a common problem found in a ghia about the same as an indicator flasher or fuse blowing under normal use
check that fusable link at 45 as well you are looking for the relay with theses colour wires black white stripe and a black yellow stripe one side 2 black blue stripe the other side

Hi. Did you check the fuses under the bonnet as well as the ones inside? Clock and cig lighter share a fuse with the interior light and a fault in any one of these will stop each of the others. Same fuse also provides power to the radio/cass memory wire on some telstars and if the radio has been changed the fault may be behind the radio, Check the color of the memory feed wire and if there is a spare wire there which is the same color try connecting it to the memory wire ( this gets left off when people cut the plug off, from new there were 2 wires crimped into the same terminal). Cheers MD

yes it was the one wire behind the radio that made the interior light and clock and cigerate lighter to work
from memory because i have not owned one for awhile it needed two power source from it
