Replying to: ladyfocus (Oct 26, 2008 6:27 am) Someone just told us about checking out the computer---why didn't we do that right away..? So, that's what we will do soon, & keep our fingers crossed also. I'll post results; maybe it'll help someone else.
#194 of 286 Door lock problem by ric041 Dec 12, 2008 (9:06 am)
I have been having a problem with the drivers side door not locking either with the key or the remote on a 2005 Focus. All the other doors lock, but not the drivers side. The car went dead the other day and I had it towed to the dealer. The car wouldn't start, but all the gauges would be flashing,interior and headlights worked. The dealer said there was a bad cell in the battery and replaced it. When I asked about the door lock situation, they said it was working . When I picked the car up, the first thing I checked was the lock. Not working. Waited around 3 hours for them to run a diagnostic but finally had to leave. Any ideas?

Replying to: gembot (Jan 24, 2008 2:06 am) Has anyone found out what causes the fuse to the headlight switch blow out? This cuts power to the dash lights and to the running lights.
#196 of 286 running lights and instrument lights by g2b Jan 05, 2009 (7:25 pm)
I had a problem with the fuse for the headlight switch (f32)blowing. Cuts power to the running lights and instrument lights. replaced headlight switch assembly (includes relay) and problem seems to be fixed.

Headlight switch did not fix the problem. Blew the fuse again. Replies to this message: g2b (Jan 15, 2009 2:50 pm)
#198 of 286 04 Focus clicking and missing by robnor1 Jan 07, 2009 (7:26 pm)
My daughter has owned an 04 ZTS for a couple years now. Several months ago the car started bucking or missing every now and then. She says while this is happening there is a clicking noise coming from left front dash, probably the fuse/relay box and the radio cuts off. This only happens maybe a couple times a month for about 20 or 30 seconds. She says it feels like the car is going to quit. After the surging stops, the car runs perfect for the next week or two. I have driven the car each time after this happens and I can never re-create the problem. Any ideas? Replies to this message: bear_fan (Jan 07, 2009 7:39 pm)

Replying to: robnor1 (Jan 07, 2009 7:26 pm) I had a similar problem that I battled for months, intermittently the lights, radio would go off for a second or two and the lights on the dash would all light. I was cleaned up all the ground connections under the hood including the battery and problem has went away. Knock on wood.   Steve
#200 of 286 2001 Focus Wagon - Tail Light & License Light are out by desertbum Jan 08, 2009 (7:19 pm)
Yesterday I was rear ended, not any apparent physical damage. That night it was noticed that the tail lights (running and parking) and license plate lights were not working. All other lights (headlights, dash, directionals, etc) were working o.k.   I replaced all of the bulbs for the running lights and license plate lights. Still did not work. All the fuses were fine.   Not sure what to do next? Would appreciate any suggestions. Keep it relatively simple... I do not have a lot of auto electrical experience...   Thanks in advance Replies to this message: oldfordmech (Jan 09, 2009 4:28 pm)

Replying to: desertbum (Jan 08, 2009 7:19 pm) TRY THIS; 1. get a 12 volt tist light. Hook the ground clip to a good clean metal ground, touch the other end to BOTH sides of the fuses w/the park lights on. If only 1 side of fuse lights the test light you have a bad fuse.If all fuses ck ok go to next step. 2. Remove rear bulbs.ground clamp end of test light again to a GOOD body ground. now touch other end to bulb sockets contacts (w/park lights on) and one contact should light test light, if no light follow wiring to plug in connector, poss-under L.R. corner of car. Unplug and ck for a hot wire there w/test light. 3. If you have power at light sockets,ground the test light to the other contact in socket,may need to use a paper clip to get into bulb socket, if your fuses are good,WITH TEST LIGHT, my money is on a bad ground. 4. Do this and send a note to let me know what you found Cliff
#202 of 286 2000 focus SE; dash lights randomly go out/come back by 5murphys Jan 10, 2009 (9:21 am)
I have a 2000 Focus SE wagon that my daughter drives. She said recently, the dash lights will go out completely with no warning or seeming cause. And then they come back. She said sometimes, turning the lights off and on several times brings them back.   Any ideas?   Thanks.
