maxp Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Hi guys, Immediately to the right of the power steering reservoir at the top left of the pic, there is (what I think) an earthing cable attached to a small bracket, which is attached to the engine. See this pic: http://images.gtcarlot.com/pictures/38402939.jpg On my focus, the cable has completely snapped. Where does it go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does it go? no point in paying ford for one of these, you can easily purchase some single core 20amp cable and crimp connectors, attach one crimp ring terminal to the hole where the original has broken and bolt in on place, then run the cable diectly to the negative terminal on the battery of the car. and affix with another crimp ring terminal job done.
