Re: AuthorMike - Ford Focus Mk1 – 2000 X reg

Hi Kev,

I am hoping my brother will take a new waveform tomorrow (he finishes at lunch on a Friday)... so it may be the waveforms are better ater a couple of weeks use...

...still doesn't explain the 'better' waveforms with full load ON though... :?

Re: AuthorMike - Ford Focus Mk1 – 2000 X reg

Thanks, my thoughts were similar. Allow the brushes to wear in, and do another test. Wasn't sure if anyone had seen these signs before, rather than us just assuming.

Re: AuthorMike - Ford Focus Mk1 – 2000 X reg

Hi all,

Right we should be taking a better look at this on Friday PM, or Saturday AM, but we need some specific info...

Do any of you know, or can you find out the ‘good’ RPM & current for the fuel pump?


Thanks,

Mike

Re: AuthorMike - Ford Focus Mk1 – 2000 X reg

Thanks Dan - that's a great starting point. Some additional information has come to light, DTCs. Now these were pulled from the car after the recovery chap had visited, during which time they had the pump disconnected whilst they cycled the key several times. The codes have been cleared now to see i...
