Hello everyone! Im new here and i got a problem with a Sharan TDI 1,9 2002 modell that has to be solved. Both of the window motor stopped working, and not long after this the air condition stopped working. We delivered the car into a garage and they found out that the window motor in the right(passenger side) was defective.

They gave a offer to fix both these electric window system and the AC, but it was WAYY to expensive. So i decided to fix this myself. BEFORE diagnosing i checked the whole fusebox. One fuse was blown, but it was not relevant. First i checked the AC.

No air was coming from the ventilation, so i guessed this had to be the heater blower motor(it was not working at any speeds settings, so i exluded the heater blower resistor, wrong or not?). I took it out tested it with direct power from the car battery, seemed like it didnt work. So i ordered a new one a few days ago. I also checked the output voltage to the blower and i read 7,5-8 V. So i thought maybe it could be the battery or some wiring?

Second i checked the electric window system on both of the front doors. So i took of the doorpanels.

Dismantled the window motors on both doors. Checked if the windows motors was working, this time i used a different 12 V battery. The one on the drivers side was working the one on the passenger side was defective. Then i checked the windows switches on the drivers side, but it seemed like it was can bus line(?) maybe with many pins so it was difficult to measure.

So i went ahead and checked the wiring harness in the drivers door and found this in the transition between door and car, DOOOOOOHHH Pretttttty obvious huh. The terminal was even plugged out. So the alternative is to repair it or buy a new wiring harness. The wiring harness seems so short and with 10 broken cables it would be a complicated fix. I have read that in volkswagen cars its not permitted to do any soldering. So i have to use crimp connectors, crimp plier and a hot air blower to shrink the crimp connectors. Couldnt find any new wiring harness at ebay.

Somebody know where i can order? A little late but thank you for the reply. I solved this problem awhile ago. Because the cables were broken into the connector housing, there was not enough wire to joined them up.

So i had to get a new wiring harness. As there were also 2 wires broken in the left back door i got use for the old contact housing replaced a cable shoe at the left back door housing. Anyway i ordered a used wiring harness from a junk yard. As for the problem with the AC the old heater blower was not defect( i tested it wrong. I found out this when i checked the new one didnt turn on either). As the local garage had checked the AC system for failure and found nothing wrong i reckoned that they had checked the whole fusebox, but to be sure i checked it again. And then i found the problem!

The fuse that was blown earlier, which i thought was irrelevant, was blown again. I replaced it with a new fuse AND the blower motor turned on. But after a minute the new one got blown. And then i saw it was coming smoke from the right side washer nozzle in front of the windscreen.

I then realized that the heated element on the washer nozzle was defect and was causing the fuse to blow. I plugged out the heater element, and replaced the broken fuse again. Problem solved! Quick Navigation.

Published on November 2nd, 2010 by James Simpson 204 Ford Focus MK2.5 (2008-2012) Stereo Removal ST/RS This guide is for the European Ford Focus MK2 Facelift (Otherwise known as the Ford Focus MK2.5 in the Ford Community). The Focus MK2.5 was built between 2008 and 2012, and replaced the Ford Focus MK1. The facelift Focus can be distinguished by a face-lifted front end, which includes a new front grill design, modified headlight design, front bumper and other little tweaks. On the inside of the car, there are not many differences, apart from the stereo, which is now more oval shape, and a completely new way to remove the stereo, from the. Once you remove the stereo and disconnect the wiring from your Ford Focus MK2.5, you WILL be required to insert a code when connecting the stereo back up to the vehicles wiring. You can obtain this from your owner’s manual (usually on a business card sized card within the manual case), or requested from your local Ford Dealer Parts Desk.

Stereo Removal Steps Using your trim removal pry tool (Bojo), start by prying the lower edge of the fascia away from the dash-board. Slide the trim tool upwards to release the plastic fascia from its containing clips. This can sometimes be a little tricky, and may take a little force to remove, but as long as you are using the correct tools (such as the Bojo Trim Tool), you will not cause any damage to the plastic trim.

Now that you have removed the plastic fascia surrounding the stereo, you will now see four screws holding the stereo in place. These screws will mostly be Philips screws, but I have also seen Torx screws on the odd occasion. Unscrewing the four screws will allow you to slide the stereo out. The stereo should now be free (you may have to push two little clips on the left hand and right hand side of the stereo (you will only need to do this if you pull the stereo out at a bit of an angle).

Ford Focus Mk2.5 Connector The Ford Focus uses what is known as a “Quadlock” connector. This is released by pushing the little clip on the arm down, and then pulling the whole away from the back of the stereo. All the wires you need are behind the stereo, no need to find an ignition or 12 volt feed, everything is plug and play. The Ford Focus MK2.5 uses what is known as a “Quadlock” system. This is now a standardised system in a lot of vehicles of this year.

Connector A (Speakers & Power). Hi James, thanks for this tutorial, I really appreciate mostly the part about the wires in the quadlock connector. I have a question about them though. I have an aftermarket stereo unit, one of those chinese, which look OEM-ish, in my mom’s 2007 Fiesta (Mk6,5 if I’m correct). The car has bigger display with car computer on the instrument cluster and the stock CD6000 stereo displayed a station name there. Now, the chinese unit works great, plays all kinds of stuff, however doesn’t show anything in the instrument cluster.

I believe this is because there isn’t a CAN-BUS connection between the unit and car. And it can’t be because there are no wires on the quadlock connector adapter on the unit. But, there are two separate wires, labeled CAN-TX and CAN-RX coming from the stereo.

Is it at all possible, that joining these wires with the OEM wires on the car will allow the communication between the stereo and the car, and, in fact show something on the display on the instrument cluster? And if this is the case, do these wires use the CAN+/- wires on the car’s quadlock connector?

And which is which? Many thanks for answer!

After reading this guide and some of the comments, I purchased the PC99-X50 cable with a Pioneer patch to install my DEH-7100BT. Had it installed in my Hyundai Coupe (Standard ISO) and a Citroen C2 (Connects2 Patch Cables) before this, so I know it’s fully functional. After removing the Sony stereo, connected the cables, and nothing. The headunit doesn’t even turn on. As far as I can tell, the PC99-X50 cable does not work in this instance, unless I’m missing something? The car is a 57 plate Ghia estate. The factory headunit was the Sony one, no DAB and no handsfree.

Hi James, I have MK2.5 focus ST with the NX nav & combined climate unit. I do not like this unit and intend on converting it to an after market screen with separate climate module.

I have purchased a climate module and a replacement oval type fascia. I have not attempted the fitting yet as I am yet to purchase the head unit. Looking at your photos for radio removal in a mk2.5, it looks like the radio is built into the dash and not mounted off the back of the fascia. Also the aircon unit seems to fix with a screw at either end to the dash and not the fascia (my climate module also has these screw holes). My question is that if I am changing from the NX unit, will the correct mounting and fixing points still be present for me to install the separate head unit and climate module, or will I need mods?

Many thanks, Jon. Hi James, Thanks for your useful instructions.

I want to replace my cd6000 stereo on my Ford zetec Mark 2.5 2009 with a Kenwood KDC-DAB4551U which is missing the main cable. I wanted to know if this will still be required if i buy the PC99-X50 cable you have suggested. Will i also have to buy the Autoleads PC2-84-4 – None Steering Wheel (Stalk) Controls? I also want to fit the DAB aerial and the Kenwood KCA-BT300 Bluetooth Unit.

There is a Nokia blue tooth already fitted but the original unit stopped working and i was told it may be due to a fault with the blue tooth unit. Kindly advise on which parts i should buy.

Thanks Mahesh. Hi James, I was lucky to come accross your this website as it carrys lot of information for everyone. I recently bought plate 60 Focus Titanium reading the review of its advance electronics.

However was disappointed to notice that Sony DAB CD whilst has phone symbols but do not seem to have phone / bluetooth functionality. I therefore was browsing / searching the web how and with which model to replace one now fitted in car, I will appreciate if you will kindly advise make & model to go for which will replace current one without any issue. I will also prefer which has built in sat nav. Kindly advice.

Thanks & Regards. Hi, I have a 59plate focus titanium with the Sony dab stereo. The phone buttons on it purely mute the stereo.

What components would I need to buy, or at least what features do they need so I can search for them, to get the stereo to operate with Bluetooth and to use the built in phone buttons. Ideally I would like to not buy a whole new stereo. Is it likely there is a microphone built into the roof light unit or cabling in place so one can be installed? Or would that need to be bought too. Thanks, Graham. Dear James I am about to order a Parrot MKi9100 for a 2007 Ford Focus with Sony MP3 Model CD3XX-CDI-ISLAND-KW2000 (Sony item number CDX-FS307JD).

Following your recommendation, i have ordered a Musiconnect MC2082 cable. If I understand properly, that should be the only cable needed for fitting the Parrot into the Sony, correct? When you say: “If you’re fitting a hands free kit to your MK2.5 Focus, don’t forget to take out the stalk control and aux wires from the quad lock connector and place them in the new Sound On Top (SOT) lead (failure to do so will mean the owner will be unable to use their stalk controls or aux lead)” You mean that something else needs to be done to retain volume + radio tuning control of the Sony unit using the steering wheel controls? Do I need to fit an additional ISO cable as well?

And another last question. If I purchased the MKi9000, would it still be possible to configure parrot volume to the max so it outputs at maximum level to the Sony Amplifier (I saw you doing that in a video with a MKi9200).

Is that volume setting retained after powering the car off? As a reference for you, this is the back connector of my Sony unit: This is the cable coming from the car into the radio: This is the exact model of the radio: Thank you very much in advance. Hi Mat, Unfortunatly the Zetec does not come with bluetooth hands free as standard (this can only come if the first owner ordered this as an optional extra), the stereo’s all come with the aux and hands free buttons (even if its not fitted). As for the aux lead, chances are, the main wiring for this is taped up behind the glove box, and you’ll need the adapter to put into the hole in the glovebox (see this post: ) As for the bluetooth, this is an expensive upgrade to do, as you’ll need to get the bluetooth controller and have your stereo re-programmed to accept this. I have started writing a guide on how to do this, but I don’t currently have all the information and pictures to finish it, but I can tell you its a big and expensive job (it will be cheaper getting an aftermarket unit, such as the or a bluetooth stereo.

Hi James, Im a fellow Teessider, now residing in Bristol. I have a 2006 Focus Titanium with the square sony cd player. (picture below if it worked) My question is, has anybody had any joy removing one of these without the correct flat metal removal tools? I’m about to embark on a long journey and cant bare not having any music for the trip. I recently fitted a new battery and now I need the numbers off the radio so that I can get my radio code. Fingers crossed somebody has a quick removal tip!! Hi there, I have just purchased a 60 plate Ford CMAX with a Ford 6000CD the rectangle one not oval.

I have purchased the removal keys and popped the stereo out today and the quadlock connector looks exactly the same as your diagram. I want to install a Kenwood DPX-405BT, the question I have is in regards to the steering wheel Stalk. I’ve found the connects2 one but there are two types. Either a lead for Vehicles with 12V ignition feed in the harness or without. Does the harness definitely have the 12V ignition feed.

I also understand I would only need this lead and not an extra ISO harness lead as well? Hi Darren, The best way to do this would be to take an ignition from the back of the stereo, or even using a multi meter find the wire which becomes live when the stereo is on (I cannot remember which wire this is off the top of my head, but there is deffently one, as I had mine wired in this way). Then once you have found this, feed the wire behind the glove box (zip tie to the rest of the wiring loom above the glove box), and then down the kick panel, and under the carpet on the passenger side of the car. Thanks James. Hello Thanks for the nice set of information! I have a 2008 Focus with the oval 6000CD basic stereo, same as in your picture here: ) and with the climate controls as in your picture here: Now I’m planning to throw in an aftermarket unit. The one I found is really for the Mondeo mk4 but from what I have been able to find on the web the Mondeo and Focus are equipped with the same 6000CD stereo.

Would you happen to know if they indeed are exactly same or if there are differences that will cause problems for me? The unit I’m thinking about ordering: ). Thanks again. Followup: The new stereo unit arrived and is now installed.

Some notes: 1. It is 2mm, or so, deeper and the ISO connector is not connected directly to the stereo. There is a CANBUS decoder and a bunch of wires behind it that you need to find space for.

This is not easy but by removing the climate control unit while fitting the stereo it was possible. Getting the climate control unit back in place with the stereo installed was also not a piece of cake but creative use of the bojo tool helped. The hardest part of removing the oval fascia was the middle part between the stereo and the climate controls. The key here is to pry it upwards, away from the climate controls and towards the stereo.

In your video it seemed to go much smoother. I guess the ST version lacks the hooks in the middle.

If someone thought the unit I linked looked interesting, it is, but not as nice as on paper. It was not a perfect fit. The difference is probably less than 1mm but the oval fascia does not go perfectly into place (for me, the left upper corner seems to be the problem). It can probably be pried into place but since the plastic is quite cold here now when winter is coming I was afraid it would crack if I used force. Also the android part of it is not perfectly stable. I’m not sure what causes it but I have had some problems with hanging software. It could be a bug in the navigating software but it is annoying when it just hangs while driving.

I have mainly used navfree ( ) 4. If you get this stereo for your Focus, remember to to get an antenna adapter as well.

It uses the old antenna connector. Hi Jason, Unfortunately you cannot just tap into the sub wires on the back of the stereo – this was designed for an optional extra Ford sub woofer (which had little power). If you are going to keep the standard stereo, I recommend one of these: This wires into the rear left and right wires (Pin 1, Pin 5, Pin 4, Pin 8), then you’ll run your phono leads to the rear of the car into your amplifier. You also cannot take a power feed from this block, amp’s use a lot of power, and would surely burn out the power wires if you did this – You’ll see that amplifier cable is really thick in comparison to the wires on the ISO block. You’ll have to run a separate cable directly from the battery to your amplifier. Then the remote cable is as you say, Pin 16 on the ISO cable for your remote, although there is a wire which becomes live when the stereo is on (I cannot remember which one this is off the top of my head – but if you have a multimeter you can find easily enough) – This means the sub will power on when the stereo is on, which means you will not need to have the keys in the ignition for the sub to be powered.

Thanks James. Thanks for this info James. Sorry I have been away so couldn’t respond. I have bought a LOC and tapped into the pins as suggested. Also, I have found someone mentioning an unused live feed in the boot (drivers side behind the carpet) which is approximately half the size of the amp cable. Have you come across this wire and if so is it adequate to use to power an amp. As going from the battery seems a great deal of effort as everything is so tightly packed within the engine bay.

I have tested connecting up the sub and amp using the loc and the live feed in the boot.It turns on and off as it should. May sound a little silly here but the bass doesn’t seem to be working on the sub when it is bridged and the amp on the LPF setting.

The sub works fine when it isn;t bridged and on the standard amp setting but this is then trying to play high frequency sounds which obviously I don’t want. Do you have any idea for where I am going wrong here? Kind regards Jason. Second to this I have a non standard HU used in a previous vehicle which has pre outs so quite simply use this but for a sub. However, I’d rather keep the stock HU. If however, I do not get adequate bass response usinf the standard/loc set-up do ford have a fascia whihc is double din but have a box compartment below as the “2nd din” I can not find one anywhere.

This: but with half as a compartment. Or can you just buy a different cheap fascia with a compartment and take it out ans slot it in. This Idealy I would like the sub to work on the stoock HU.

Thank you Jason. Hi Jason, Under no circumstances should you use the cables which are already in the car, the cable which you have mentioned will melt under the stress and power which an amp pulls through it. Chances are you’ll keep blowing fuses. The best way is as I have mentioned before is to run a new cable from the battery. If you put your head under the glovebox (or remove the glove box) and pull the carpet down, you’ll see a nice rubber grommet there, which leads directly into the engine bay. Make a hole in this grommet and feed your amp power cable through, then feed this cable through the door trim (plastic trim can be removed easily enough) then under the carpet (or if your Focus is a 5 door, under the rear door trim) then under the rear seats into the boot. This isnt a big job – If you live in the North East, I would happily do this for you, I would rather a safe and neat installation instead of people having/causing issues with their Focus.

By the sounds of the amp settings, you need to have it on Low Pass Filter, then tune the frequency to get just bass coming through the amp. Bass uses a lot of power, so it may be referring to my first comment where the cable you are using cannot draw enough power and goes into protect mode. I ran a sub for 3 years on my old Focus using the same method I have written in my guides, using the standard stereo also, and it worked perfectly without any issues what so ever.

Got nice bass from the system, and people were amazed it was using the standard system. Let me know if your from the North East and I would happily take a look at it for you. Cheers James. Hi James, Just bought a Focus st2 08 facelift model with the sony radio as standard with the 1 cd only.Anyway listen to five live alot for the sports but my reception on this car is very poor even though the car is in mint condition.

I have cleaned the aerial connection and under light switch, but this is hardly connecting to the body due to the plastic washer which the screw goes through to hold the aerial onto roof.Cleaned and regreased the negative on battery and to body of car.Please would be grateful for any suggestions to improve the situation. Thanks in advance. Hi Rob, Are you trying to convert a square type stereo to an oval one (or vice versa?) – Or do you currently have an oval stereo and you are trying to fit an aftermarket stereo into your car? That is the only reason I could think you would need a full fascia for your car. Yes these are hard to find, you may have to go to Ford to order one in for a MK2 Focus with climate control (will then give you the square Ford 6000 stereo hole), which you can then use to purchase a double din fascia for this. If you are trying to fit a single din fascia, you can get fascias to fit the oval stereo hole (as outlined in the guide above). If you want more help, just drop me an email using the contact form on my website, and I’ll happily help.

I need hands free with my IPhone 5, which I can sort of get by plugging the IPhone into the AUX plug in the glove box and having the stereo up at a really high volume (20+). Callers can hear me pretty clearly but I am not sure if that’s through the stereo or if the IPhone (sitting on the dashboard) is using its own mic for me voice. It’s not ideal and I do need hands free calling in the car. Should I go for a Parrot or would change the unit for a Bluetooth enabled stereo give me the same result.

I don’t really understand these things but have worked out that a Parrot would come with a mic, where would the mic be on a Bluetooth stereo. Any help you can give me would be great. Thanks in advance Jacqui. Hi Jacqui, Unfortunately your iPhone is acting as the microphone for your call, you are only using the aux wire to output the sound from the phone through the car speakers. So this system is not a true hands free kit, as you’ll have to answer the phone by hand by swiping the answer bar on the iPhone and not by simply pressing a button.

I would personally go for the Parrot kit (I speak from experience in fitting these and also experience from using my own Parrot device in my Focus, and have no issues with it what so ever.) Changing the stereo would give you the same result (it would have to be aftermarket), but will cost you more then simply getting a Parrot kit installed, and you get to keep your standard Ford stereo. Thanks James.

Hi James, Looking for a little bit of advice. I have a 2010 Ford Focus Titanium with the Sony Dab radio fitted. I am looking to buy the Pioneer AVH-X3500DAB to replace it, my only concern is the dab aerial connection, i assume the connection will be totally different?? Do you know if there is lead that can swap that connection?

Can it be re-wired to a new connection?? The reason is because I would like to use the standard dab aerial in the focus as i don’t want an ugly aftermarket “stick on the windscreen” one Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Great to finally find some information on the Mk2.5 as you call it. My wife has a Ford Focus CC Cabriolet 2008 (07/08 FOCUS2 on Vin) with a “SILVER” climate control unit (19980D from ford.au) and we want to upgrade the stereo but we also want to change the climate control to a “BLACK” unit. I am after any information at all that can tell me if the 2012-2013 BLACK climate control will work as a change over unit as it looks identical from photos? Part numbers I have spotted from google are, BM5T-18C612-AJ aka BM5T18C612AJ 7M5T-18C612-CD aka 7M5T18C612CD BM5Z-19980-B aka BM5Z19980B Can someone confirm if the smart sync Mk3 2012 is BACKWARDLY compatible with the Mk2 2008 in regards to climate control? Hi James Thanks for all this info.

I have a galaxy with the. Travelpilot NX that just spotted working. No error, nothing on the screen, just some wiring from the navigation DVD drive for a few seconds on power on. And because climate control is integrated we’ve lost that too. I would like to change the whole unit and buy a separate climate control module and one of those Sony 6000 or other after market double din head units.

Do you think I can remove the travelpilot NX and install the separate climate control unit? Hi James, This might already be in the comments somewhere but I’m looking at buying a mk2.5 focus and wondered which level of the stereo has Bluetooth connectivity? I was planning on getting a car with the 6000CD and then just buying the Sony unit from eBay. Is it a straight swap or do you need a DAB aerial to make it work properly? I assume the 6000CD doesn’t have phone connectivity and that the green/red phone buttons are just a mute/unmute? Does the nav upgrade version have bluetooth?

Sorry for all the questions!! Hi Alex, You will find that the hands free kit was an optional extra on all the range, and didnt come fitted as standard. The Sony stereo has the buttons for the hands free kit, but does not work if you dont have the optional extra.

As for retrofitting this, I have priced it up, and would cost something around £300-£400 to get it fitted and working correctly (will need to take the car into Ford to have the moduel installed to speak with the CPU). After the above, I went for a Parrot kit instead – £150 fitted, and works exactly the same way, if not better (Music screaming from phone, iPod compatibility, USB, SD Card). Good tutorials and very helpful. Keep up the good work. I have a focus st3 07 plate with the square 6000 Sony stereo.

I have bought the newer type facia to fit a sat nav DVD and I was wondering if there is an aux live at the back of the stereo or do I have to run a sep live from key? I would rather it come on with one click of the key and not ign live.

Also In your video on YouTube it shows you removing a carbon fibre facia with the manual heating controls. Do you have the part number for this please? Regards Scott. Hi James Iv’e just bought a (58)2008 focus mk 2.5 from what I can tell, as it looks like the pictures above. It also has the silver stereo with the rounded edges.

I havent bought my stereo replacement yet but am just doing research on what I will need when the time comes. I’m slightly confused about the PC99-X50 wire you say I would need to keep my wheel stalks working. On the below websites it says the adaptor fits only Jan 2005-Feb 2007 focus and mines 2008. Will the PC99-X50 adaptor work for me or should I be looking at the adaptors that go on about ignition wires (even more confusing) e.g Many thanks if you can clear this up. Hi Gemma, Sorry about the late response, only just found this comment pending approval. Right, it looks like that website has got their data in a bit of a twist.

The option you posted is more for the Mondeo, and the newer style Focus (MK3) where the steering wheel controls are on the steering wheel its self. The Focus MK2 and MK2.5 are all the same connectors across the range, including the steering wheel controls.

Fear of the Gnosis of `who we really are`. We must say that it is not only of `who we really are` but also, and in many instances `more-so` of.

The only lead you will need is the PC99-X50 plus the patch lead which connects to the stereo you are fitting. Thanks James. Hi James 7.6.12 I wonder if you can help me? I am about to have a third replacement radio fitted to my 08 Focus Zetec under warranty by my local Ford dealer.

Reason the reception on AM keeps degrading so that Radio 5 & Radio 4 LW (Cricket!) becomes virtually unlistenable whilst FM remains fine. The radio intitial is ok then it gradually gets worse over 4-5 weeks as if the screening/suppression breaks down so that the engine, wipers/washer noise is incredible – any thoughts. Ford and my local dealership have been ok but I feel the problem will not go away. Am I right that the Titanium of the same vintage has a DAB Sony radio?

If so is it directly interchangeable with the Zetec radio? Or do adapter plugs or aerials need to be changed? I have already suggested this solution to Ford customer relations. Thanks Chris. Hi Really appreciate your help with this. I’ve just checked the stereo and removed and reconnected the quadplug. There are connecting pins for the part B & C on the diagram, 12 in all.

I’ve noticed on the old cd6000 unit there are only 4 pins on the unit where they plug into the connector C side (corresponding pins 5, 6, 11 & 12) I’ve also noticed that if I crank the stereo right upto top volume I can faintly hear the mp3 player, so it is connecting, just not giving me full volume for some reason? I’m using the same mp3 player and lead so it must be the stereo. Thanks for your ongoing help, I know I can use MP3 discs but the aux in facility would be handy. Hi Mustakim, Yes you can run a subwoofer off the standard stereo no problem, however it does not have RCA outputs like an aftermarket stereo, but you can use a High Level Input to RCA converter. I have used these before with great success: You can also pick up a similar converter from any Halfords store (PC1-601): This just wires inline with the speaker wires coming out of the back of the stereo.

You do not need to snip the wires (some people believe you have to loose a set of speakers, but you do not) Hope that helps James. Hi Christian, Unfortunately its changing the clocks from a MK2.5 and putting them in a MK2 will not work. The clocks are controlled by the CAN system, and link in with the immobiliser and computer system. This is supposed to stop people changing clocks and clocking cars mileage.

So if you change the clocks, you will have one car that cannot be started (will have to be plugged into Ford computer to get up and running, but chances are they will not do this due to the implications with the mileage differences and what not And yes, the mk2.5 stereo has the same connections as the mk2, so both have aux input (3.5mm jack) Cheers James. Hi My dad has a focus titanium 2010 which has the sony radio, bluetooth, sat nav etc etc all built in. The major problem is my young son who has special needs thought the slit in the cd player was a money box slit and has posted several coins into the cd player!!!

My dad of course has hit the roof as there appears to be no way of getting the unit out like before! Please have you any ideas? I fear we may end up damaging the whole thing trying to DIY or spend loads at a Ford dealer trying to get it sorted. Many thanks Jo.

Hi James, I’ve purchased for my focus the same radio that you have. The only problem was that my version of focus came without the mic in the roof light, so I had to add one and connect it to the radio. I used a stardard microphone with 2 wires (+/-) and connected it to the respetive pins in the back of the unit. But the only way it seems to recognize my commands is talking loud near to the mic. The question is, what am I doing wrong? Do I need a special kind of mic?

(I’ve tried with 3 different standard ones) Thanks for your help, I hope to read from you soon! Hi Danny, What type of hands free have you got? Is it an after market (Parrot) type hands free kit, or is it the factory fit hands free kit. If its the factory fit kit, you will be unable to use it if you change the stereo for a double din unit. Also the USB port will become obsolete if you change the stereo too. However, if you are still wanting to change the stereo, you’ll need to get a PC99-X50 (Auto Leads Stalk Control Lead – Available from Halfords or eBay), you will then need to get a compatible stereo (Sony, JVC, Pioneer, Kenwood – Big Brand Names), and a wiring adapter for the chosen stereo. Hope that helps a bit.
