#1 of 12 Keyless Entry System by extremed604j Nov 05, 2007 (5:17 pm)
I have 2000 Focus SE and the keyless entry system is not working neither are my power doorlocks. The dealer spent an hour diagnosing it (cost me 275) and then told me that they needed to pull out each door panel and look at each actuator motor, I refused because I could not afford it. I am wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and what did they do about it?

Replying to: markus5 (Nov 06, 2007 2:44 pm) Yeah there was going to be a 70 diagnosis fee and what ever it would cost to fix it, i I wanted the repairs done. I would have been ok paying if the thing would have been fixed. But apparently I they replaced a blown fuse which made the system work but the fuse blew again so they put in a new fuse. I got charged for the changing off fuses and since they had to open my door panels they charged a higher diagnosis fee. I HATE FORD and have even lost my love for the Cobra, I plan to light my Focus on fire once it stops working cause it has given me so many problems and I can barely afford it on a students salary. GO HONDA!!!

The button on the dash for the trunk doesn't even work. It's very annoying.. I don't drive the car much anymore though, so I haven't bothered to fix it.   Does your trunk leak too? Mine does and no matter what we do, we can't seem to keep it from leaking.
#5 of 12 Passenger rear door won't lock by 06_focus_owner May 24, 2008 (3:47 pm)
The rear door on the passenger side of my 2006 Ford Focus ZX4 SE will not lock (either from trying on the inside or from using the keyless entry). Does anyone have any siggestions as to what may be causing the problem?
#6 of 12 How can you tell if your car had a keyless entry? by a90myers Jul 19, 2008 (5:36 pm)
I just purchased a used car. It's a 99 Grand Am SE. Has power windows, power door locks, power mirrors, power driver seat. I have only 1 key. I went to the hardware store to get a few made and they told me that I may have to go to the dealer because the key may have a "chip". I think this car had a keyless entry system. How can I tell and do I need to go to the dealer for a few more keys? Replies to this message: oldfordmech (Aug 09, 2008 10:09 am) xscout (Jun 27, 2009 12:19 pm)

Replying to: a90myers (Jul 19, 2008 5:36 pm) a90myers; You posted your question in the FORD focus forum. Anyway, did you get any key fobs w/buttons on it? If you did, or you have a key pad on your driver's door, then you have a keyless system. Replies to this message: xscout (Jun 27, 2009 12:19 pm)
#9 of 12 door locking on 2001 Ford Focus by tribfra2006 Mar 29, 2009 (5:03 am)
I have owned my Ford Focus for a year (bought it used) and it has started locking the doors when the keys are left in the ignition. Also, there are times when I cannot unlock the driver side door with the keys,it has keyless entry. I wish someone could help me. It is getting frustrating being locked out of my car.

Replying to: extremed604j (Nov 05, 2007 5:17 pm) If they charged you $275 and they STILL don't know what it is, then you had better take it to a PROFESSIONAL, not an AMATEUR! Unless you are a $BILLIONAIRE!
