stavross Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hi, I am a new member here so appologies if this topic has been done to death. my wife has a 1.4 petrol fiesta zetec and has recently been displaying this fault, has there been a permanant fix found for this and if so what is it? don't want to start changing things for nothing! tried a search but couldn't find anything, if someone could provide a link it would help. cheers, stavross.

orcomma Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 It has been known that the EAC Fail fault can be caused by dodgy spark plugs / HT leads, when were they last changed? Might be cheaper to try this first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavross Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 thanks for the replies, will check the plugs tomorrow. was looking at the tps repair kit (1 509 254) but at £180:00 wanted to try cheaper options first. I have done searches on other sites and they recommend cleaning various connectors/plugs but nobody says if this sorts the problem or not. cheers.
