Instructions to Remove the Fuel Switch on Ford Focus MK1

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004

In this brief guide, you will learn how to remove the fuel switch on a first-generation Ford Focus; this operation is typically performed right after an accident. Locate the switch on the driver's side, at the bottom, by removing the plastic cover; use a thin tool to pry it off. Once you have found the switch, disconnect its electrical connector and then unscrew the side fixing screws with a socket spanner; you can then replace it with a new one, applying the reverse procedure!
