Loosen and pull back the carpeting in the back of the trunk behind the taillights.

Step 2 Remove the plastic wingnuts that secure the taillight to the vehicle's body.

Step 3 Separate the taillights from the vehicle's body, but do not disconnect the wiring.
Installing the Connector

Step 1 Examine the wiring harness on each taillight. There will be a plastic connector on each side that must be separated to insert the wiring harness connector.

Step 2 Thread the trailer wiring connectors through holes in the body behind each taillight. Follow the instructions provided with the connector to determine which connector belongs in which side of the vehicle.

Step 3 Insert the wiring connectors into the vehicle's wiring harness.
Reinstalling the Taillights

Step 1 Push the taillights into position against the body and reinstall the plastic wingnuts that secure them. Be careful not to crush the wiring.

Step 2 Route the trailer wiring underneath the carpeting in the trunk, so that the trailer connector can extend out between the trunk lid and bumper when in use, and be tucked into the trunk when not in use.

Step 3 Reposition the trunk carpet over the taillight housing.

Dear Madam or Sir,

the problem with your Focus is the blower motor´s pre-resistor. This is a low-priced spare part (app. $15) and can be serviced in no time.

The pre-resistor is mounted to the blower motor´s assembly, change should be done in less than 45 mins of time at the shop.

Hi Harper,if its one of the front lights there's a plastic back when you open bonnet/hood.Take off plastic back,very easy.Unplug the block attached to back of bulb.There's a steel clip which you release & bulb pops out.Replace new bulb & follow same steps as taking out. Try not to handle glass on new bulb.If its backlight again very straightforward.Just make sure bulb on back is the same,only 2 types,single & double connector.Hope this helps mate.Let us know if you got it done.

If you have the owners manual check there first if not you may need topurchase a haynes or chilton manual at you local parts store

the receiver / dryer on your car is located in the right front bumper. you have to look up from underneath. you will see an aluminum cylinder (the drier). the valve is on the very top of this unit, not very visible, you have to reach up and feel it. it is not very conveniently located, but that is where it is. also note that there is probably a plastic cap on the valve that will need to be removed before servicing. good luck!

You have a short circuit in one of your components. People look for lights on but that is not the case all the time. Good test is to turn your vehicle off and let it cool down and the sweep touch components in your car for warmness, meaning they are using energy while off, that is your battery energy. Most cases I seen is the starter or the wiper motor. Hope this helps.

it should be somewhere under the hood

is in the back side of the carter on the gearbox front of the exhaust

Get under the car and look up under and on each side thoroughly and you will see the bolts necessary to tak it off. It is quite simple and need very few tools It is just a vinyl cover.

You may need to replace the lock actuator. See if it is getting any power with a test light while pressing button.

Power Steering Pressure switch is probably bad.
