I have a ford focus 1.6 Zetec 2003 and have a problem with it. The wires
running to the switch on the driver's door which operate the windows don't
seem to be carrying any power to the switch. I replaced the switch with a
new one, but the problem's the same...'nothing doing, ...

I have a new Focus which has a 'solar-reflect' windscreen, also
'quick-clear' heated windscreen. I am thinking of getting a sat nav unit
(Tom-tom or Garmin) but I read that there may be a problem receiving the GPS
signals through the widscreen. Is this true ?

Re Focus 1.6 Ghia 2004 40K miles
Purchased this car six months ago and it was fine for first couple of
months.  Then one day after a 130 motorway journey I noticed an
unpleasant noise from the front end

Does anybody have any thoughts on this?  Somehow the seatbelt (not the
buckle) got stuck in the corner of the passenger door of my son's 2001
ZX3, and he can't get the door open to get it out.  The door is stuck

Does anyone know the direction of the wheel nuts on a Focus? I cant
seem to get them off, and dont know if I'm turning the right or wrong
way. I know a bit of a blonde question. ..but worth a shot.

I have a 52 reg 1.6 focus.
I have just noticed that the cooling fans come on as soon as I start from
cold, and stay on until I switch off the engine. I thought maybe one or both
the relays had stuck on, but I've checked them with a meter and that is not

I have found a source on the internet that will supply the rear drums
with the whell bearings attached.  Is all that is required is to take
the assembly and attach with the four bolts in back of the wheel?
I can't get the vendor on the phone to ask him the question.

All, I just picked up a 2001 ZTS.  I'm looking to replace the

The clutch failed on my daughter's Focus at 72K.
It was replaced but now the car has a steering wobble. The garage says a
drive shaft has failed.

I took off the front splash guards and all the paint was flaking right
at the edge of the rocker-panel.
Any way to get ford to fix this under the rust warranty?
probably wishfull thinking.

My speedo intermittently flies up to and past the 100mph mark and back
again. This would be liveable apart from the fact that the radio
volume goes up and down with it. Is this just a case of replacing the
speed sensor?

Was wondering if anybody can help...
I've recently bought a Focus C-MAX on an 04 plate, very happy with the
car.  I went to plug my ipod into the cigarette lighter the other day
and no power.  :(
