Where are the Radiator Fan Relays Located in the Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the radiator fan in your Ford Focus has suddenly stopped working, first check the status of the relays, whose location is shown in this video. As demonstrated, there are four relays located in the box inside the engine compartment, protected by the black plastic cover near the battery. They are the last ones at the bottom when looking at the box from the front. If a relay is faulty, ensure you use a replacement with equivalent specifications and always work with the vehicle turned off to avoid any damage.
