Thank you College man. I found the problem some time ago but i have the time now to share my findings.
The problem was in the light switch inside the rear door lock switch. I found the entire schematics for a later MY Ford Focus (for the facelifted version) but the colors of the switch matched perfectly with the ones i had on my rear door.
So, there are 4 wires (4 pins). Pin 4 is hot at all times (12V) and pin 2 grounds the light circuit when the door is opened. I used my multimeter and crossed the 4 and 2 pins from the harness and ….voila! Bulb lighted immediately. So the is a ground perhaps inside the light switch which cannot be opened and repaired.
Finally i used a LED bulb to light my trunk. Not a perfect solution but it’s cheaper than getting a new rear door lock switch.Entire Schematics concerns MY 2010 Euro spec so if anyone is interested, i can email him a copy.
Thanks for you help guys, much appreciated!
Ok… I’ll locate the 2 wires from the hatch switch to the bulb and jiggle them and see what happens.
Perhaps there is a short (or something wrong) inside the switch…I’ll keep you updated.
Hey Apostolis! Long time no see!
What happened to that Clio? Did you come up to a solution with that misfire problem?
And the most important thing… Did you find a honest garage in Athens to make the diagnosis properly BEFORE anyone changing ALL those parts?Hey Apostolis! Long time no see!

Perhaps i can make a list of things just to help you.
