Dose Nebody Else Have Electrical Problems?!!

I drive a '00 focus se Xplod edition with nothing but a borla catback, ram air intake, upper struts, and xplod ice all around. Its a nice car to me ( my friends thinnk differently), but i am having problems with the electronic windows. This is the 2nd time this has happened. The windows have constant problems rolling up/down. any solutions? thx.

maybe get a new car. I think preludes are nice! :inside joke:

That is part of the recall that Ford put on the Focus...2000 and 2001 Focus have electrical issues...I'd go to the dealership and get them to check if the recalls have been done.

If not, it doesn't matter if the car is out of warranty or if it's been souped up...they'll fix it for free.

But honestly, you're best to get rid of it and if you like the Focus and tuning them up, buy a used '02 or '03 model with the Zetec engine. More initial power, fail-safe cooling system, and no recalls at all.

You'll have better success with it.

My focus is already equipped with the 2.o liter zetec engine. It is a special edition se. so i dont think power is gonna be a problem.

I have a 2005 Focus and I have had nothing but electrical problems with my car. First the air bag module went out and the wiring in the car was not grounded... next a fuse caught fire and blew out my fuel pump and just this past week my key got stuck in my ignition and the mechanic said it is another electrical issue with wires not being grounded but even the Ford Motor Technicians on the hotline cannot figure out what is wrong with the car. And best of all now the car won't even start!! Wish I would have never gotten rid of my escort...

That's why crank windows rock :iceslolan j/k
It could be a few things, probably a bad window motor, loose ground, crappy wiring to the motor, or even the actual window mechanism.
It's hard to diagnose without anymore description, so some more description could help find a problem.

sounds like u bought a lemmon DITCH IT

I have the stupid problem of when it's cold, my airbag light comes on, I'm scared one day it's going to pop out in my face!

eh... it won't hurt. it's just air... in a bag.

and other guy... why'd you get rid of an escort for a focus? shoulda gotten a ZX2.

i have had problem after problem with mine first off i bought it off someone who thought having no oil,water,sc wash and no clutch fluid would help his chances of getting from a to b..

know my engine light will not go off, the heater will not work and the speedo has a mind of its own whats going on

any ideas its a 1999 1.6 Zetec:runaround:
