Pull up on the brake pedal, see if stop lamp goes out? You may need to check stop lamp switch and brake pedal arm? Pull that fuse in diagram, see if it kills the stop lamps? At the bottom left, in diagram, see the green wire with yellow tracer, that wire should not be hot unless you step on the brake. You can use a test light to check for voltage. good luck

Hi Ray,

I put in some time at an auto salvage yard. Aluminum wheels were big sellers and not something we wanted to damage.

When the lug nuts needed some persuading, we got out the high impact 12 pt deep sockets.

First try we used the correct size.

If they were stripped, one size smaller. We hammer them on to the lug and use a breaker bar with a pipe extension.

The only real problems we had were getting the lug nuts out of the sockets.

Good luck and best regards,
Mike

That's usually an indication of a problem somewhere in the data lines. A good shop can sort that out for you.

You have a fault in the transmission, see a repair shop for further testing.

Not uncommon for Ford focus coil packs to play up I've replaced a few I would recommend, replace coil pack and have leads. If you have car serviced at the regular service interval the plugs should be ok.

How to Replace the Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly on Ford Focus Part 1 How to Replace the Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly on Ford Focus Part 2 I took 10 seconds to look this up, what's the reason you couldn't?

It is just bolted on, the new hub comes with a new bearing already mounted into it. You will also need a new hub nut (MUST BE REPLACED) and a torque wrench that goes to at least 200 foot pounds.
