engine system fault

Featured Replies

hi, my 2007 ford focus 1.6 tdci has show up saying engine system fault and there is no power (i presume this is limp mode). i called the AA out who told me that it was the camshaft position sensor (which i then replaced and there was no change). i have plugged in a standard code reader which brought up no codes. the warning can not be removed by restarting the engine and the AA guy advised me not to drive it. anyone have any ideas?

Standard readers (OBD2) are very limited, when it comes to non engine faults. I suspect it is either glowplug related, or DPF related.

There are two ways to read the codes & find out:

Ford IDS at a suitably equipped garage (up to £100 just to test).

A system called Forscan: £15.00 if you have a windows laptop, or a bit more for iOS or Android versions.

For a bit more on Forscan, see:
