.hi Man, good day! I believe this Ford Focus of yours is the same as the Ford Ecosport, i would like to know what is the normal degree celcius of the temperature of the coolant for Ford Focus or Ecosport? What is the Temperature before it nears to overheat? i noticed Ford Ecosport does not have temperature gauge so i bought an OBD tool to display the coolant temp. Mine reaches 110*C specially when going to steep places. Thanks in advance and hope to hear back.

@jasonantonio7906 9 месяцев назад

Hi. My 2016 ford focus 1.0 ecoboost is having the same problem where both fans not activating. Bought new module as suggested. Still same problem however I then noticed that when the iat sensor is unplugged, the left fan comes on. The water in the bottle starts to bubble and then the second fan comes, spins for a minute and turns off.

@LindseyGayham 7 месяцев назад

You can easily bypass the control module and your fans will work when you turn the ignition on. The fans stay on all the time, but i live in Australia so they need to be running all the time because its so HOT🥵

Yeah dude i had the same conundrum. I looked under the hood of my 2012 focus and the module plugged into the fan is the same exact module with the same exact bosch part number as in this video despite every site selling this part saying it doesn’t fit 2012 focuses. Look under your hood at the top of the fan. You can see it there. I’m curious to know if your 2012 has the same module as the one in this vid and my 2012.

@m1garand164 2 года назад

So I have a 2012 ford focus and when I look up this part from your link or on my own googling, it always says this module is only for 2013-2018 focuses. But yet I looked in my hood and the module is this same exact part number from Bosch. Do all the sites have the fact wrong that this fits 2012’s as well, or was my fan assembly replaced already with a different fan assembly than the original? For some reason I was led to believe I needed to buy a whole new assembly for my 2012 because the module was soldered to the fan itself. That apparently isn’t the case. Can anyone shine a light on what is going on here? Lol

@cynthiaprz417 2 года назад

Sam issue, did you find the real answer?

@m1garand164 2 года назад

@@cynthiaprz417 i figured it out. This module fits the 2012 focus exactly. It’s a common informational misrepresentation that needs to be fixed. It’d pretty wide spread misinformation on the internet that this part won’t fit 2012 focuses. But it does. I’ve repaired it, and had the same replacement part on my 2012 focus for months. Works great.

@@popoyodankasf4557 should be fixed then lol! From all the research I've done, this module is the number one reason for overheating if coolant is fine. The original OEM module isn't sealed well and water gets into it and kills the computer inside. Aftermarket are sealed better, so they say.

I have a 2013 Focus ST. Just recently the engine fan stays on while I drive, when I turn off the car the fan stays on for 10 seconds and then turns off. Sometimes the engine fan will turn on when I open the door. The engine fan stays on even when the temperature outside is cold eg. 61 F The coolant is full as well. The engine temperature is right below the middle. I’m not running the AC either. Do you guys know what the issue might be?

@matthenry2573 4 года назад

TLDR: CHECK THE MEGA FUSE IN BATTERY CAGE FIRST. I'm the guy that always reads and never posts. Had to post this time. I have 2015 ford focus SE 2.0L. My fan would not come on and car was overheating. Changed temp sensor - no fix. reset computer - no fix. Checked all relays and (what i thought were) all fuses - no fix. Bought a new control module - no fix. Bought a new fan and new control module because the original control module was a take off - no fix, i didn't even install it, deemed not fixed just by plugging it in. Changed both up and downstream o2 sensors - again no fix. So now im $400 in and, today i decided to completely clean the battery and inspect all the wiring from the fan with much more detail. There is a bridge connector on the front panel of the battery junction box with several high current fuses. The cooling fan is junction 8 and has a 50 amp AM1 MIDI fuse that was blown. Remove the air filter box (not the filter just take out the entire box), pry the front cover off the battery junction box (not the battery) and you will see the same color wire as the control module connector going into a 50 amp fuse at junction 8. Scroll down to the bottom of this guys help guide to see a diagram of the junction box diagram. ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com/2012-ford-focus-fuse-diagram/ This fixed the problem, i suspect the original control module wasn't even bad - but i dont know because i tried to pry it apart to see what failed - they are glued dont try. maybe with a heat gun? Now i just have to see if i can return the temp sensor, fan assembly, and o2 sensors. I guess it was stupid of me not to check this, but i didn't know it existed - no mention in the manual or any forums. Today i learned. Also, this will help anyone who was in my situation: 1. The cooling can on a 2012-2018 ford focus 2.0L should always turn on when the AC is on. 2. The cooling fan on a " " should turn on at exactly 105*C (at least min died) and then off at 102*C. Hold menu and start the ignition to go into test mode, scroll down to see the actual engine temp. 3. You can check all the relays by starting the car and feeling for a click in the relay. 4. If you hot wire the fan straight to the 12V battery and the thing turns on, its not broken - dont replace it. 5. If you are getting a temperature on the test mode screen, the temp sensor works, dont replace it. Hope this helps someone.

@Lord_Pistachio_Nut 3 года назад

@@shuffler2g12 the MEGA fuse he's talking about: you know the plastic "plate" that you have to unclip and pull back to get the battery out? The MEGA fuse panel is inside that plastic plate/door. You'll know it because the positive battery lead wire goes to a bolt that attaches to a plate going into that plastic piece. You have to pull out the wire harness to the fuse box next to the battery to access it. Once you pull that harness and pull the clips off holding the wire to that plastic piece you're going to take a flat head driver and carefully pry the lid off to access the MEGA fuses. Their are 6, I believe, under there. They're just flat metal plates with a colored plastic piece in the center with a number on it, bolted to the big plate inside. You're looking for the second 50a MEGA fuse from the right side. You can test It with a multimeter to check flow. I DOUBT that's the problem because that fuse is ALSO the battery junction box fuse, meaning if THAT blew not only would your fan not ever work, but nothing would work, no ignition, no interior power, no wipers, no nothing. But, yeah, there is your guide lol.
