  • In this video (167) I replace the dead battery in my previously abandoned 2007 Ford Focus Mk 2. I also take the dead battery at 1 volt and bring it back to 12 volts and start the car with it.

    If you click "SHOW MORE" in the description above your be able to see Links to the Tools 🔧🔨🔧 I use. Also Clickable Chapters📋 📙 throughout the video and other Links 🎬 that may be of interest. I've had a few viewers request where they can buy the tools they see in some of my videos but it's not very clear that the "SHOW MORE" tab has a lot of information in that may be of interest. Admittedly the amazon links are associated with me and I would earn a small commission which helps towards keeping the channel funded.

    Great video. I've just inherited one of these and struggled to get the battery out. Now I know why, I didn't know about removing the airfilter, apparently neither did my father as he had fitted an 063 battery not an 075... 😮😅

    It can be done without removing the air filter box, search for a youtube short "2012 ford focus battery replacement. space to remove the battery". I tried it on my 2005 Focus, and it works.

    Great video!
    My spouse's Focus has the battery fitted as the one in the video.. Got interested to watch all about it just because of the fact of where it is located.. Just silly to see it tucked away to deep in the back. Surely though you should not have a need to replace it everyday..😆 Just was curious to see how they actually do it.
    Thanks for this!👍🏻👍🏻

    If you are looking at putting this back on the road mark may I suggest cleaning the earth cable as mine cut out on me coming home one night really threw me as to what it was had to get rac out who diagnosed that as the problem he cleaned the connection and where it connects to the body and replaced the bolt had no issues whatsoever after that. Look forward to the next part

    I had problem with ford c max mk1 with baterry draining. In few hours car drain battery completly. I recharge it, and drive for couple of mounts. New battery by the way. Did you have or heard of problem like that? Ghia is package of equipment with electric parking brake and parking sensors.

      No, as i was found out, drain was from something powerful, battery was warm.

      Hi Lucas, the plan for this is to have it as a spare car to buy me time to make video's when needing to repair other cars. A family member needs me to look at their Mini and the EGR valve/DPF but the time it takes to make a video I need the car longer than they can be without a car but if this Focus works out I can hopefully say "there's a car you can use you just need to tax and insure it for a month".

  • @pastrychef7527
    @pastrychef7527 9 місяців тому

    I'm not 100% sure you need to remove the air box etc, as the battery boxing can be removed once the battery cabling is disconnected (it's tight!) -- it appears Ford may have updated things with the Focus 2.2 model, as the boxing has been changed with a removable front panel. Still fiddly.
