garywc Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Hi all. Had my focus about a month now and it's been nothing but trouble. 56plate mk2 1.6 diesel lx model Anyway the clocks are going wappy quite often into what I would say is limp mode cannot accelerate or pretty much drive. Seems its an electrical problem as a tap on the dash rectifies this till its next episode which could be minutes or days. Read up that you can take clock appart and re solder the pins. I really don't fancy doing this so would I be able to buy second hand clocks and swap plug and play no problems? If I was to get it fixed professionally who would be best person to go to. Auto electrician? A garage? Or somewhere else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F0CUE Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 The solution peeps have been using is to use MK2.5 ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I buy a mk2.5 is it simple swap or does it require modification of wires or anything? Also will I need to have anything re programmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doggsbody Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 If the clocks are anything like the MK1 focus it'll be just 4 screws n 2 plugs nothing more 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
