How to Change a Fuse on the Ford Focus MK3

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Fuse box

In this video, see how to replace the electric power steering fuse on a Ford Focus MK3; this fuse is located inside the fuse box in the engine bay, to the right of the battery. The cover has a mirrored identification of the various fuses present in the box, making it easy to find the one you need, which is fuse number # F40. Remove it using the special tweezers included in the cover, gripping it by the cap. Using the same tweezers, position the new fuse of the same amperage - use the colour as a guide; remember never to replace a smaller amperage fuse with a larger one, or it won't work properly - and push it in firmly. Close the cover and your work is done.
