Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to change the battery of the Ford Focus: in this case, it is the ST Line, but the procedure is the same for all MK4 models: the battery is located inside the engine compartment, on the right side, looking at the car from the front.

We start as always by disconnecting the negative pole, and then keeping it well away from the battery.

We also remove the positive pole, moving the electrical cable that passes over the battery. We grip the battery by the handles and pull it towards us: it is not secured to any other bracket.

We reattach the new one in its place, put the cable back in place, and then reconnect the positive pole first and the negative pole last. And it's done.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
