How to open the front hood on a Ford Focus vehicle

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018

The opening of the hood on Ford Focus vehicles follows several steps depending on the type of Ford vehicle or its year of production. In the case of a Ford Focus, to open the hood we must: - insert the opening key into the lock located behind the logo; - then insert our hand inside the hood to move the internal lever and lift the hood; - lock the hood with the rod; If the hood does not open, the cause could be a problem with the lock or central locking system due to a lack of decoding by the control unit.
