  1. Electrical (Mk4 Mondeo)
    (Silver-)Calcium (Ag-Ca) batteries or even "just" Calcium-Calcium (Ca-Ca) batteries are a must for our Mondeos, allegedly. However, apart from the original Ford/Motorcraft made batteries (and perhaps they're old stock, too), - according to the results of my search, at least - these types of...

  4. Electrical (Focus Mk3)
    I recently posted a query about whether a new battery would solve a problem - thanks to turbopete1 who confirmed the battery probably needed replaced. I've now replaced the battery but the problem hasn't been fixed unfortunately. Wondered if anyone has any ideas please ? Front cigarette...
  5. Electrical (Focus Mk3)
    Wondered if you could help please re an issue with my Mark 3 Focus diesel estate 2013 ? Rear power outlet in the boot works perfectly. My 1hr radio stopped working a few months ago suggesting that there was an issue with the battery. A few days ago the front cigarette power socket stopped...
  6. Electrical (Mk5 Mondeo)
    My battery seems to be failing - frequently voltage is around 12.1 to 12.2. It's the original battery (EFB) and 7 years old, so no surprise it is on the way out. Got a long road trip coming up in the summer, so need to replace. Would this work ok?: YBX7110 12V 75Ah 730A Yuasa EFB Start Stop...
  7. Ford Fiesta Mk7 Forum - (2008-2017)
    Hi I'm looking for a new battery for my daughter's Fiesta. Is it best to stick with the standard size 063, or utilise the full size of the battery tray and put a larger battery (096) with better CCA and Ah capacity? I guess that the battery tray is designed for larger batteries for the diesel...

    Hi, I replaced the battery in my 2009 fiesta 1.4 titanium yesterday and ever since, the alarm has been going off (maybe every 2 hours?) and I think my neighbours hate me... I've slammed the doors, bonnet and boot shut to make sure they weren't slightly open or anything, but it hasn't helped...
  9. Air-Con / Heating (Mk4 Mondeo)
    Hi all, I have this peculiar issue with my 2010 MK4 Mondeo Titanium. I noticed it first when I hadn't driven the car for about a week, as it's lockdown. Sometimes after it's not been run for a while it will be a little slow to start like it hasn't fully got enough power to crank, but it starts...
  10. Electrical (Mk4 Mondeo)
    Hi Apologies if this has been covered, I've read loads on here about battery draining but still not sure what my solution could be. I have a 2009 Titanium X 2.2 TDCi that I've owned for a few years, on a few occasions when the car was left over the weekend the battery would die but plenty of...
  11. Electrical (Mk4 Mondeo)
    Hi Recently, my wife's 2010 Mondeo 2.2 Titanium X has been been popping up with an engine malfunction error on starting, that turns into just a warning and it says code P1260 Engine Immobiliser. It only does this on a cold start; on a warm start it performs normally with no error and nothing...
  12. Electrical (Ka Mk2)
    Just bought a 2012 Ka2. It's SORN at the moment awaiting a V5 arriving. Every day or two the battery is completely flat the car has recently had a new battery with a receipt to prove, and looks like a new one. I've measured the current draw when the ignition is off and all doors closed etc...
  13. Ford S-Max Forum
    Hi all, Although I found several interesting topics about the smart charge system and battery replacement, I couldn't find the answer to my specific question. My 2008 S-Max (2.0TDCI 130) is due for a battery replacement, as voltage while driving shows an always 14,3V or higher (through...

  15. Electrical (Focus Mk3)
    Evening, all. Just over a week ago, I purchased a second-hand, '11 plate, 1.6L Petrol Ford Focus 1.6L Ti-VCT, from a local, highly-reputable, family-run garage. With little over 66,000 miles on the clock, a full-service was carried out, and MOT test performed (and passed, with no advisories)...
  16. Electrical (Mk3 Mondeo)
    Hi Folks I got a new (rebuild) alternator and battery mounted. The old battery was dead. So was the alternator. (My mechanic told me). Now I can hear the alternator whine (not from the belt) when running whiteout any load (only position light). It will get louder when adding more load. Mondeo...
  17. General Car Talk
    Hi, I installed LED everywhere on my Ford Mondeo MK4. 2008, 2.0TDCi. The problem that I have is that my battery recently died. (With battery died - I have in mind voltage 2-3V, the car cannot be unlocked with remote, There is nothing working inside - I unlocked it with the mechanical key.) -...

  20. Electrical (Mk3 Mondeo)
    Hey everyone I know that there are multiple posts regarding similar problems here but I'm not able to figure out what's wrong in my case. I've got a Ford Mondeo Mk3 Estate (2001) that drains the battery if I leave it for 5 days or so. I did a parasitic drain test on all my fuses, according to...
