#232 of 286 Temperature Gauge goes red by pcln Jun 12, 2009 (9:04 am)
The temperature gauge of my 2000 Ford focus se wagon goes to red when I drive in slow traffic in the city. Once the traffic moves or when I get on the highway the temp. gauge goes back to normal. What should I do? Do I need to change the fan, radiator or the sensor etc.?

OK Pay Attn;   Do u have any other thing that runs off 12 volts ( phone charger,dvd player.work light, ect ? ) if u do, see if any of yhese work in cig outlet, if they do then u have a bad heater elem. the part u light your cig with. if they don't work u have 1 of 2 pos problems. 1. a bad fuse, test with a 12 volt test light. if all fueses test good, reach behind lighter outlet,unplug pigtail ( it pushes on ) stick your test light into this pigtail end, it should light,if it does, unscrew the back of thr lighter outlet, it's like a can that screws onto another smaller can, replace with new socket. if u do all this and u need more help just shout.

#236 of 286 Cigarette lighter inop by shardie Jun 28, 2009 (8:23 pm)
I have a '01 Focus wagon, the cigarette lighter does not work. I have checked the fuse, it is fine. I have taken the wires of the back of the plug, checked for power, no power there. I checked for power at the fuse location. Did not get any power there. Is there some type of relay? Or other fuses in line?
#237 of 286 06 FOCUS SIGNAL FLASHER? by matr2 Jul 05, 2009 (8:55 am)
Replying to: stephanie82 (Apr 30, 2009 4:37 pm) i HAVE A 06' FOCUS W/ A SIGNAL SWITCH PROBLEM. IT JUST STARTED BLINKING FAST WHEN TURNING RIGHT. USUALLY THAT MEANS A SHORT OR BAD GROUND SOMEWHERE OR YOU JUST REPLACE THE SIGNAL FLASHER. WHERE IS THE FLASHER? i'VE TAKEN THE COVER OFF THE STEERING WHEEL, I HEAR IT BUT DON;T SEE IT. HAS iT CHANGED SHAPE? OR IS IT SOMEWHERE ELSE? Replies to this message: csmchugh (Jul 05, 2009 10:35 am) pf_flyer (Jul 05, 2009 2:23 pm)

Replying to: matr2 (Jul 05, 2009 8:55 am) You may not have a short or wiring problem. The quickly flashing signal is also the typical warning sign that one of the signal lamps are blown out. I don't recall if the blown lamp is on the same side as the quick flashing, but you can start checking there. These are much easier to change out than anything in the steering column.

Replying to: csmchugh (Jul 05, 2009 10:35 am) Yea, that was my first thought as well... burned out bulb.   Start with the simple first!

Replying to: sandy18 (Oct 14, 2008 12:37 pm) My 2007 focus sedan had issues with all the dash lights and guages quit working, coming on and off while driving. Dealer replaced a wiring harness and mentioned something about the brake pedal. Has worked fine ever since. My car is still under warranty. Hope this info helps.
#241 of 286 No crank, no click, good battery. by rinse Jul 11, 2009 (7:33 am)
A few days ago my car worked fine. Then I went to start it, and nothing. The car wont respond to jumping. The battery is fine, putting out 12.4-12.5 volts. I hace power to radio, dome light, and parking lights. Key turns fine, but i get no dash lights, no key in ignition dinging. I have good power to starter and alternator, but no click. I have been tracing wires for days. relays and fuses are good. Any advice? Replies to this message: mickeymouse2 (Jul 13, 2009 7:57 am) rinse (Jul 13, 2009 2:10 pm)
