The owner's manual says that the fuse in on the back of the fuse panel in the passenger compartment. I looked at the shop manual and it confirms that the fuse is located on the back of the panel. However, it doesn't tell you how to get to the back of the panel. Guess I'll have to look for myself.

 

Thanks, if you find out please let me know.

 

Wow! I must admit to defeat! I printed out the layout of the front and back of the fuse panel from the manual-on-disc I bought for the car and crawled underneath the dashboard with a flashlight and mirror. But I could not, for the life of me, find the fuse! There are plenty of wire bundles that are strapped to the fuse box that block any attempt to view the location where the fuse is supposed to be. Running my fingers all over the back and comparing it to the image didn't help. Obviously, if my door locks didn't work, I'd have to continue the search, but I have to call it off because the next step would be to dismount the fuse panel. Not something I want to get into right now.

Sorry.

 

Did you check the fuses in the engine bay? I am currently having a problem with all my door locks not working so I will keep an eye on the thread.

 

Eric, I am still trying to correct my lock problem. Do you have a wiring diagram(schematic) for the 2000 Ford Focus? I have a friend who says he thinks he can track down the fuse (or problem) with a wiring diagram. If not, how do I get one? Thanks again.

 

The fuses in the engine bay are ok.

 

If i could make heads or tails of the schematics in my haynes i might could get it I will take a look later.

 

i found the fuse but it blows as soon as i try to lock or unlock the doors, take out the 2 screws on the fuse panel and the entire panel drops down its hiden amoungst all the wiring harnesses on the back, waht kind of dumb ass came up with that brilliant idea?
