I had lots of trouble with earths

Had to bare metal where the earths go, not nice on fresh paint but was the only way to stop disco lights on the dash

There should also be earths in the kick panel area too - either side IIRC. As Edd said - they need to be clean bare metal connections. See if you can borrow some of Graham Norton's vaseline to make sure they have good contact, and stay corrosion free.
