#10 of 286 poor electrical system by focus2 Dec 10, 2005 (7:40 pm)
My focus seems to lose electrical power when I let it idle. I had the battery serviced, as well as my alternator checked. It still continues to do this. Does any one have any ideas why?
#11 of 286 Strong jerk and Multifunction Light When Tap Brakes by tiredofford Mar 20, 2006 (6:31 pm)
I've got a real strange problem. I have a 2000 W/Zetec 75K. I bought the car new and have had 9 (including fuel pump)recalls. To the best of my knowledge I am up to date. Ok, here are the problems, reciently I have noticed a number of things that look to me to be electrical problems. I notice a buzzing coming from under the dash on the passanger side. While that buzzing is going on IT SEEMS that if I turn on the headlights or step on the brakes I feel a strong jerk and the Multi-function Transaxle/cooling system light turns on. I don't really notice a power loss after the jerk and the light only stays on for a second. A few seconds later the radio will turn off or the guages will bounce irradically. I thought that maybe it was the fail-safe cooling. But, the service engine light doesn't come on?- nor is the car overheating. I can't seem to make it do this, it picks when and where, therefore have $350.00 into trying to fix it. Ford tech found nothing when it was connected to the dig.computer I would really appreciate some help.

#13 of 286 Gauges going crazy with strange clicking noise by lstavang May 24, 2006 (12:29 pm)
I have a 2002 ZX5 that started having power or electrical problems this week. The battery light comes on briefly, the gauges go whacky and the lights dim. I don't know any mechanics and don't know where to take it other than Ford. I see that as a last resort. Can anyone give me any idea of what the problem may be? Thanks! lstavang Replies to this message: explorerx4 (May 24, 2006 2:29 pm) kartdevil (Feb 12, 2007 9:13 am) mookieuofs (Nov 01, 2006 10:48 am) explorerx4 (Nov 02, 2006 6:52 pm)

Replying to: lstavang (May 24, 2006 12:29 pm) you might need a new battery. it can cause electrical gremlins. maybe a car parts store can check it for you. look on their websites to see if they offer battery checks. Replies to this message: kartdevil (Feb 12, 2007 9:13 am)
