It looks like you followed the most logical, methodical procedure. I also worked for Ford, was a Master technician, living in Pretoria, South Africa. Left December 2016. Started my own business. Was so sick of the warranty process and delays. I remember on the 2005 model focus mk 2, we had to remove the B.c.m or G.e.m, to replace the darn pollen filter. I can't tell you how many times I found those clips broken. 😂
A trusted process is golden. Never go down the rabbit hole. Im learning so much from yourself and simply diagnostics. You guys are what the industry needs a sharing of knowledge. Great video mate
Nice diag & repair and yes sometimes we have to use zipties in ingenious patterns to secure plugs with broken or malfunctioning locks vs charging the customer to depin & replace plugs. Process & knowledge is what fixes vehicles.
Nice to see you popping up again Steve. Hope the new job is suiting you well. Must be part knowledge and part process here. I’m not a Ford guy so I wouldn’t have known that the PCM needs to be alive for any comms to take place. (So that part of your diag is definitely knowledge based). If I had that on a VAG vehicle, I’d definitely be off in a different direction. Is this because there is something akin to a ‘gateway’ built into the PCM on a Ford? Not seen it myself since I don’t see many Fords but I had heard about the washer fluid into BCM issue. Wonder if this car has had a BCM already for that problem and someone was a bit rough with their handling of the connector latches? Anyway, however your diag process might be characterised, it’s clearly quick and effective. Totally agree with your cable tie fix btw; the object is to get the car running and you achieved that. Permanent fix can come later. Thanks for sharing, regards, Russ.
@@trevormansfield6495 no mate, I took a job at the local college as a lecturer. But all the policies, politics got to me, plus the fact they just throw you in the lions den. I quit after 2 months. I now work directly for a vehicle manufacturer mainly doing EV work
@@SYDiagnostics No surprise with the college. Mine wasn’t too bad back in the late eighties when I attended but my son has just passed out as an electrician. They were a joke. Like jumped up politicians. Almost got to legal proceedings. Someone with your knowledge should be in the motortrade but I know it has its issues
Steve are you still teaching. Are you able to make more of these videos and i believe they are definitely some of the best out there with you tutorial skills.
Nice to see another one of your videos Steve , once a seen no dashes for speedo reading had an idea you would end up at the BCM , I’m sure you thought that as well, excellent video as usual, hope to see more 👍
Very logical process, pretty poor of the other garages to not sort this after so long. Product knowledge does help a lot though! Good luck with the new job
my style of videos are about showing the whole process and at the level I work at, then wiring diagrams are essential. Thanks for the comments and for viewing
these are higher than the older ones, plus have a cover under the glove box. The plug is high up too. I believe its been damaged when somebody has removed it at some point
@@SYDiagnostics Thanks, I will look at that👍 I have a 460 minibus camper and know a day will come when the only person who has the time to fix it is me!!

Outstanding mate, thanks for showing us how it is done. God bless.
Thanks 👍
Good to have you back posting more quality content
Great video. No parts required! Bet that Ford dealer is missing you when they have a challenging diagnostic job in!
4 months and 3 garages... That just blows my mind.
Great to see you sharing your knowledge again.
Great vid and fault finding process 👌👍
Thanks 👍

That to me is following a process with a bit of knowledge. As before a quality video showing the process glad your back wondered what happened
That is such a common fault for people to kick that fuse box most of the time it’s the radio connection that comes loose. Great work
Quite common on the earlier focus, mondeo and kuga yes.
What a nice surprise, fantastic video steve
i'm glad to see you back
Good to have you back. One of my favourite diagnostic channels.

All your videos have been excellent. Wish you did more as you are a natural presenter. I always pick something up. Thanks
I wished I could do more too
@@SYDiagnostics Did you say you were a lecturer now ?

I am from Morocco . thank you for everything you do

I'm not anymore, but on my next oportunity I will try doing the same format.....seems to be a popular style
Great diag, Thanks for sharing!

Good to see u back Steve👍
Great as usual
Miss u,good to have u back, excellent content
great to have you back Steve. Iv'e missed you! I was thinking of taking up decorating myself LOL
A superb walkthrough of how you diagnosed this vehicle. Just became a new subscriber due to the A+ video. Cheers from Cincinnati, Ohio, USA 🇺🇸!
Thank you for your kind comments. I hope you find the other videos worthwhile too.
always liked the style of your vids. good to see you back👍👍
As all always, it is very informative and great to have you back👏👍
Nice to see you back.
Very good detailed and well explained Video - Thank you for the Work.
Happy days
Very logical process, pretty poor of the other garages to not sort this after so long. Product knowledge does help a lot though! Good luck with the new job
Thanks, in all fairness the garage that I attended to the car in, hadn't looked at the car and called me directly
Welcome back. Missed your videos.
great work. thank you for sharing
Would like to see some troubleshooting vids without wiring diagrams as most diy's dont have them,
my style of videos are about showing the whole process and at the level I work at, then wiring diagrams are essential.
Thanks for the comments and for viewing
It looks like the whole fusebox is liable to be kicked by the passenger when they stretch out. I imagine the connector has suffered damage that way.
these are higher than the older ones, plus have a cover under the glove box. The plug is high up too. I believe its been damaged when somebody has removed it at some point
Hi mine 1.5 no crank good battery and starter
👍
Could someone of changed the cabin filter and flicked it up by accident
hi good video i have a mondeo mk4 can you tell me where i can get wiring diagrams its a 2.0 ltr diesel
Sorry to ask a question but how can a regular diy’er get hold of the wiring diagram such as you have?
You can subscribe on an hourly / daily rate with the manufacturers site, or subscribe to companies such as alldata or autodata etc

Thanks, I will look at that👍 I have a 460 minibus camper and know a day will come when the only person who has the time to fix it is me!!
Hi would you able to help blowing fuse f32 no start no crank
I would have just swapped the relay next to it and seen if the relay was bad
And it still wouldn't have started or had comms, but yeah, worth a try
Where do you get wiring from please
ford workshop info system
