    I have removed, re-installed, and replaced the battery in my 57 focus a few times, and have never found it necessary to reset anything other than the radio. Unless you are getting any unusual problems, I wouldn't worry about it. If it is needed, I'm sure someone with more knowledge than me will put you right.

    Hi, the 2007 doesn't have a BMS, so nothing to reset or clear.

     

    @StephenFord can you confirm there is no BMS or a 2007 ?

    On what computer? Unless you've plugged in and read the codes using a reader then it's a waste of time.

    If you are talking about the crazy little codes that you can get in the Instrument Cluster they are of little to no use to anyone.

    You need to read the real DTC's using a laptop and Forscan software.
