focus52 Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Hi I am new to the Ford Focus. Can any one help with an intermitant problem. I have noticed my 52 Reg 2.0 Ghia has an unusual problem this being the needles for the temp gauge and the fuel indicater. The temp gauge twitches up and down the scale and the petrol needle goes to the half tank position I have taken it back to the dealer i brought it from and as usual with intermitant problems it did not do it then.

I left the battery off for a hour or two then i changed the battery then to the right one that sorted it out ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdy fpv Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Hi As dezwez said you need to check that your Focus has the right battery on it. If the battery is ok then the problem could be being coursed by some faulty sensors. My friend has a 53 plate Focus and he has this same intermittent problem but only with his fuel gage. The miles untill empty display just goes blank for no reason. The problem does not go untill he has put in £10 or more worth of fuel into the car. Hes knows that it is the sensor in the fuel tank he has just not got round to fixing it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
