What to Do If the Radio in a Ford Focus MKIII Is Not Working

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the radio in your Ford Focus MK3 is not working, there could be several causes, and our YouTuber helps us discover them. The first could be a blown fuse. The faulty fuse, for all versions, is located in the passenger compartment and is number 79, rated at 15A. To check the functionality of the fuses, you will need a voltmeter, a device that costs around £15 and will be useful for many DIY occasions. Another issue could be a faulty start button, possibly due to oxidation. You could remove it with a small screwdriver and check. Other functionalities may only be checked at a garage, as it involves an integrated radio.
