Brilliant Video, all of us Ford focus fans really appreciate your videos and huge money and inconvenience saving tips. Great drivers cars, and the RS mk1 is astonishing to drive
Brilliant. Your advanced drivers tip of turning on the engine and turning off the blowers first worked for me! I was being brainless and doing neither of these and wondering why heated window did not work. Thanks posting appreciated!
Great job. Thank you. My wife has a fiesta and the heated front windscreen only partially works. My garage checked the fuses and they were ok. Apparently the car had a replacement screen ( not Ford) and the garage said that was the problem.
Watched your video on windscreen heater not working R/H side with that connection inside car. Went and had a look at mine it was hanging off lol so it's same in a kuga working again cheers pal bin doing my head in for two winters sorted 👍
Thank's for a great explanation ! Appreciate the demonstration ,very helpful . Think my 17 plate Focus has the problem you show in your later video . Keep up the good work !
Its good that fuse. It breaks to half. I swaped lef to right and ordered new one. Worked and broke. Works when shortwired so need to check if there is a shortage.
Eddie Smith Paul, there is no need to take out the 8mm bolt as its only purpose is to hold the fusebox housing to the cars chassis. You only need to release the cover latch to remove the cover, no tools needed.
Thanks for the video mate, very useful. I gotta another problem with my FIN number on the windshield, its clogging up and its back to being totally dry in good weather. I have no water inside, literally no moisture in the cabin floor or whatsoever. Should I be concerned that the windshield is defective or is this only harmless condensation?
I hate those fuses with the clear tops! I cannot get them out to save my life. The metal looks good in them, not broken, but I still wanted to see if replacing my windshield fuse would make a difference.
Hello mate, I have a 2013 Vauxhall Corsa which doesn't have a heated windscreen. All I can do is turn the heater on full blast but funnily enough, it is the passenger side that clears first!
I think mine is now fixed. I found a wire to the rear view mirror wasn't connected properly. I pushed it back on and now the heated front screen works perfectly!
hi, I am having the same issue with my ford fiesta, I am planning to check the fuses first but could you explain what you mean by the wire in the rear view mirror? great video btw
@@stampysrandomreviews yup definitely aheated one like my other focus. Can see the little black lines running down the glass. My titanium clears instantly you can kinda see the black lines pulsing ,my wife's zetec same year is doing absolutely nothing. Cheers
@@stampysrandomreviews ah yes I watched that video too. Both the black bits feel quite sturdy but I can check. Do they just pull down? I tugged on them a little and they didn't move. cheers for the help.
NOW FIXED SEE UPDATE VID HERE th-cam.com/video/mwCEflRYG2w/w-d-xo.html

No problem 👍

Thank you, newbie car owner here…sat for 15 mins convinced the front windscreen heater was broken…engine on…cleared in seconds 🙈
Thanks for this video, I was ready to launch a brick through the windscreen and claim it on the insurance

You could swap the fuses round and see if the other side clears
I did. See my latest vid for how I fixed it
Thank you, my fuses are good but I what I want to know ,do they also have a relay in the fuse box under the bonett

Hi did this fix the windscreen? My heated windscreen is only working on drivers side
Thanks 👍🏼

It's annoying!! I have to get directions from the Mrs lol
@@stampysrandomreviews It could be that our cars are made abroad where they have the steering wheel on the left hand side.
Good vid but incase you need to go in to fuse box again. No need to loosen bolt , it just unclips .
You good MEN!
Thanks
I think mine is now fixed. I found a wire to the rear view mirror wasn't connected properly. I pushed it back on and now the heated front screen works perfectly!

@@armza9975 I'm uploading a video now showing exactly this and how I fixed it!
We have just bought a mk3 Ford focus and 100% of the heated windscreen is not working. fuses look good, any other suggestions please. cheers
Make sure it actually has a heated screen fitted and not a replacement non heated one. Then watch this th-cam.com/video/mwCEflRYG2w/w-d-xo.html

@@neilwest9345 See the vid I sent you

@@neilwest9345 do they just pull down?????? i cant get mine off
It’s same with mondeo? 2010
I`m not sure is it necessary to unbolt that screw...
On my car 3 wires no heat middle on the front window screen and the same on the back
Weird. I think i've fixed mine. There were 2 wires to the rear view mirror. one wasn't connected. I connected it now the heated front screen works.!
how do i take off the black things on top of the windscreen above the mirror??????????//
slide down
oki doki
@@stampysrandomreviews
Good vid. But to be honest just starting the car and putting the blowers on will clear it in roughly the same time, good video though buddy
ok my fuse box does not look like that on my 2014.
Mine also not. Did you fix the heating?
Multimeter would give 100% results for testing fuses.. come on man 🤣
I got it working! Good luck with yours
Ha ha if I had only waited 5 mins
No worries thanks for watching
my focus does the same apart from the drivers side heats up but the passenger side doesn't, gonna give this ago, great video m8😊
