Focus Cc Rear Window Fault Cured And Roof

Featured Replies

Have just cured a fault on the focus convertible rear window not working. .and hence the roof not working either ..so if your having a problem there are two control units one either side behind the rear seat back ..these control each rear window and are both the same ..so swop them over and and the fault should swop sides ..hope this helps someone. .the control unit was £110 from the dealers ..cheaper than a motor or regulator

Hi, I have just read your message regarding the control units for the rear windows on the Focus CC. I have a 2009 CC3 and while on holiday recently the roof stopped operating (fortunately up!). I quickly realised my driver's side rear window was no longer working and wonder if you have found the answer.

Can you please elaborate on where to locate these control units, how to get to them and what do they look like? Now the warmer weather is finally here I am really missing getting my top down!

Thanks.

Hi, my roof problem might be the same, but when I open the roof , it works fine but when I go to close it, I get a message on the screen, roof malfunction, service required, I press the roof switch to open again, then press the close side of the switch & the roof closes without any problems, had it looked at by ford technician for said it was the fluid reserve in the boot that runs with the motor, all was well for a few months, but now I get the same problem again now the wheat her has got better, any ideas as to what might be wrong, Brian

Hello to all members.

I have recently purchased a ford focus cc2 which strangely has some cc3 parts too. It is a late 2008 model so I am guessing this would be why the car has attributes from both models.

The problem I am having with this car is relating to the windows and roof not working as they should. Some weeks ago the battery ran flat and I have recently replaced the rear speakers in the back seat side panels. I did notice there was nothing visable to do with the rear windows when the speakers were replaced. Genuine original speakers were simply swapped over for a straight forward replacement so I don't think this would have caused problems with the rear windows or roof.

The problem I now face is the rear windows will drop only an inch or 2 when the switch is pressed and the switch needs to be released and re-pressed to drop it a further inch or 2. This is the same on both sides and the same when putting the windows back up. The other problem is with the electric roof not always working. There is a problem with the windows dropping to allow the roof to go back and when the roof is back it was a panic for 2 hours trying to convince it to go back up. Drivers door and passenger door windows work exactly as they should after performing the switch holding reset method but rear windows and roof still refuse to work properly. 

Please if anyone can help this would be greatly appreciated. I know the colder weather is upon us but owning a convertable car where I am too scared to lower the roof really defeats the object.

Hi have you joined the focus cc page on facebook. its dedicated to focus cc.

  • 1 year later...

Hi all, my focus cc roof also showing "complete roof operation" and when you press to close it just says "malfunction service required. At this point if you then open the windows they refuse to come up again. I then have to unplug the module in tho boot in order to get the windows closed again. Thought may be unit so bought one off ebay and installed same scenario. Thought it may be the hydraulic oil, but how do you check that. The tank seems enclosed. Thanks, any help appreciated. Even reliable and not over expensive garage anyone may know in liverpool area that knows about this problem. KEITH 

Not many of these about eh? No advive😩 hey ho.

‎ El problema al que me enfrento ahora es que las ventanas traseras caerán sólo una pulgada o 2 cuando se presiona el interruptor y el interruptor necesita ser liberado y re-presionado para soltarlo una pulgada adicional o 2. Esto es lo mismo en ambos lados y lo mismo cuando se vuelven a colocar las ventanas. El otro problema es con el techo eléctrico no siempre funciona. Hay un problema con las ventanas cayendo para permitir que el techo vuelva y cuando el techo está de vuelta fue un pánico durante 2 horas tratando de convencerlo de volver a subir. ‎‎Las ventanas de las puertas de los conductores y las puertas de los pasajeros funcionan exactamente como deberían después de realizar el método de reinicio del interruptor, pero las ventanas traseras y el techo todavía se niegan a funcionar correctamente. ‎
