Well done. This did the job and saved me a trip to the garage to get it fixed. 👍

Legend. Worked like a charm. After many weeks of errors and attempts to reset all. This worked well. thanks so much!

Your a legend that's just worked on my Mrs 60 plate Mondeo. Thanks man.

you are absolute legend. I almost got a mini heart attack when I got engine malfunction message while I was driving. But your video helped me !! Thank you

My partners car would not start and displayed this error, this worked and allowed it to start again... thanks a million

Thanks for the video fixed both of the warning light issues straight away

Absolute legend brah. Worked perfectly. 👌

Thank you mate , I tried this on my ford kuga 2009 Reg Manual And it works ,

Many thanks for this. I had the oil service come up first then the engine malfunction a few days later. I have my 2008 Mondeo serviced every year by Ford, so I knew this was rubbish. This has now cleared both messages. Thanks again.

Nice one for that mate, just tried it and it worked perfectly on our 2008 tdci 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Thanks mate, now I have this problem and I don't know what to do.. Glad to God I find your video

Thanks I just sorted my mates mondeo with your help 😊😜

Thank you soon much 🥰🥰🥰🥰 worked on my ford Kuga.. much appreciated.. was getting worried here 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you, helped me out straight away and solved the issue

Thank you mate. This happened me car was fine just serviced by by very good mechanic. I guessed it was a resetting thing.

Thanks for this video, i knew that would reset the "Service Oil" message but didn't know it does the Engine one as well! i just that warning today after reverse parking (service oil then engine) will try the reset and change oil next week!

Bratku, srdečná vďaka.Na mojom Forde sa to stávalo častejšie. Prajem všetko dobré. 😉

Got back to car, (Focus 06 plate 1.6 automatic) at supermarket car park and car was displaying engine malfunction and wouldn't let me even turn engine over. Searched for advice and found this and it was heaven sent. Many thanks!

I had that pop up.a couple of times today i'll be trying it tomorrow hope it helps thanks for the video

Worked like a charm on my 2011 tdci focus. Tnx

Legen… wait for it… Daryy… LEGENDARY 🔥

Mate! You are magician. Ford focus c-max 1.6 petrol zetec . Works for me. Thanx

I got engine message on my focus, and needed comp/displey rewiering. After few atempts of repair, it was discovered no dpf fuel (eolys 176) in tank (spend after 75 thousand miles). After replacing the fluid, repairman didnt reset message (i was in hurry), so thank you so much mate!

Thanks mate, life saver 🙌

Eres el mejor muchas gracias. Te amo mi bro 😂

Really helped!! Thanks so much

Thank you helped me so much 😊

Hi thanks for this video it also worked on my 09 manuel kuga.

omg I'm broke down and it's worked 😜😜 thank you

It worked on my 2013 focus. Thanks a million 🤜

Thank you for this. It saved my 2008 Focus from the scrap yard!

Brilliant, thank you so much

Thank you so much worked for me

Thanks friend - Mondeo TDCi Mk4 2008 now reset :)

Cheers bud, handy video

Perfect it worked for me :)

Yes it work thnku love u bro we stuk on motorway very good

I had the same issue. In order to resolve it, I had to replace the problematic glow plugs. In my case, three out of four were completely burnt while the one was not functioning properly. The three burnt ones were not the cause of the issue as they were completely burnt. The one that was not functioning properly had to be replaced. After this, the message was completely gone.

Wtfff u legend Made me look like a complete hero infront of the wife and kid lol

Thank you for the help

Brilliant 💯

Thank you my friend

You the best thank you

This is great thank you. The oil service message came on, 2008 Mondeo(despite me changing the oil)followed by engine malfunction message and yellow exclamation light. Followed it whilst in the car and worked a treat. Wonder how many garages would have said it needs to be re set on a scan and charged £50 for the pleasure. On a foot note though. The ok button on the steering wheel only temporarily removes the engine malfunction message but leaves the yellow ! light and everytime you turn the ignition on the em message will reappear. This is more permanent (🤞)

Omg thanks! I was about to sell my car for spares!

That will be useful to someone. On my car it’s simple to clear the service spanner light, but to reset error codes you have to do all sorts of stuff like disconnecting the battery for 20 minutes switching the ignition on opening windows moving the indicator stalk etc etc. Luckily I haven’t had to do it!

Thank You! Just got the same message and my first thought was the particle sensor... but the engine failure error comes from change oil message, so after 1 month without reset that message the new one pop-up...

Worked straight away! Many thanks!

This procedure works for a ford galaxy mk2 2005 model. The car does not tell you that it has worked but if you follow the instructions in this video it will work. Cheers!

Hi this also worked for my 2013 ford gaxaly titanium x

Thanks..its works.. ford kuga

Thanks a lot! It worked with my Ford Focus 2009. 😀

Thanks works on 2009 focus tdci

although not helpful to me currently had an engine malfunction after cruise control turned off on the highway, simple engine off and back on was enough to get going again, will definitely keep this tip in mind if i ever get stuck tho, thanks !

Thanks man

It's work😄 my car mk4 2010

130k mileage, diagnostic all four plugs damaged. Solved !

very good

Hi, I'm not sure if you will see this but I hope you do. I have had no oil service warning come up at all, then while driving today, I got an engine malfunction message come up and I had to pull over. Restarted the car and it started driving again but eventually engine malfunction message came on again. This happened 3 or 4 times till I got home. I'm just wondering if you know what might be the problem, and if I were to do this method, would this erase and potential malfunction in the engine from appearing on the dash again, or if there is a genuine malfunction will it appear again even if I carry out your method here. Thanks for the video 👍

(1.8 Diesel Duratorque TDCI 2008) Hello, and thank you for the video. I had this malfunction for a second time now. Both times happens on a highway and the car looses power, and I have to pull over. After I switch it off, wait a bit, then switch it back on, the problem is gone. I have done computer diagnostic and it always says the turbine valve is the problem. That same valve has already been replaced with a second hand a couple of years ago. From the car service has sent it for repair again, but the guys said it was completely OK and returned it back. After that I had (mostly in cold days) red or yellow engine censor on the dashboard. Then yesterday, the engine malfunction happened again on the highway. I can feel the car is not accelerating the way it was before. Now I know if I go to the car service I will get the same turbine valve mistake. I would replace it with a brand new one if I know it will fix the issue but I am not sure it will. Any suggestions?

Nice video very informative.. can I ask why my ford focus 2005 is automatically turning in a speed limit mode while I'm driving ? And can't drive fast more than 20cc

That of stepping on the accelerator and the brake at the same time, that will be the case of automatic Ford Focus, my question is, in the case of a Manual car how it will be.?

Just had mine fixed its the clocks need rewire 180 pounds i paid problems solved 👌

I’ve had the service engine oil for the past 6 months even though I’ve been changing the oil consistently but the engine malfunction light came on when I was in 5th gear and the car started to slow down a bit and had a burning smell

You legend

My dad, owning a 2010 Ford Focus Zetec (manual) could agree considering it has the same thing. His work’s local auto shop estimated its a fuel pump issue, though they replaced it and we still got the same error. He normaly uses the “SET / RESET” button on the side of the blinker stock to remove it while on the move. Its a short but intresting story. Although it removes the chime and panel screen, it doesnt remove the “i” box between the small gauges.

Thanks a mill guy.. I had a shit attack der on the motorway 🤣🤣

I've a 2008 Focus Zetec 1.6L and although its not Engine Malfunction Message, but EMS symbol(Electrical stability) and I wonder would it work clearing mine. I will edit post later to say if it worked. I do have a service due end of this month so will inform the mechanic about it as it likely could be an actual problem!.

Hi, thanks you very much for the video, just got the same error and now is gone, want to know if you get it again? Or it was gone forever? Thanks

I have a ford focus 09 1.6 diesel tdci,this message has started to appear on the instrument cluster.Its been in the local garage but they cant find any fault codes.Not sure what to do,like the car and dont want to get rid of it.

Thanks

Are there any negative consequences to this method? Thanks!

Hi I have a similar problem with my Ford Cmax Turbo Diesel manual Will holding the throttle and the brake together work on my car?

1:32 lol at the white tape, I had to do the same thing :D

I have a 2010 zetec s This has just come up on mine, shall i do the same thing to this in the video? I'm due to drive to the airport tomorrow for holiday 😫

Does this work on a manual ford focus 2009 the work shop says that my car har run out of DPF additive and i have the check engine light for almos 3 weeks and i don't what to do. Pls reply

Ford kuga 61 plays push start and unfortunately didn’t work for me, just moved back to the uk and only had the car a few weeks, any other suggestions please 😢

This happened to me yesterday. Ive had service oil light come on everytime i start the car, this started 4 weeks after an MOT. It says get oil fixed before 1k miles. Ive not done 1k miles but the engine malfunction light has come on so its booked in today for an oil filter change and oil change. Hopefully everything goes back to normal afterwards because its only done 34k miles. And its like brand new, although its 2010 plate.

Can these cars be clocked in milage through that computer

Mate I have a 59 plate mk7 fiesta what does it mean when you've got a new turbo fitted and new EGR Valve runs and drives bang on. Sometimes when it wants when I go to 2k revs for the turbo about to kick it sometimes it dies lose power but still drives fine. Having to pull over turn car off and on and it's fine again till it happens again? Also orange light in dash shows orange crank symbol with exclamation mark inside it then says "engine malfunction please service now"

Hey man, great videos, I have troubles starting my ford focus estate 1.6 petrol year 2010., italian language and I can't adept to it , so when I start like I keep the key at position two until the red light goes off then I start normally, but when I try to start it right away it won't start, if you have any tip for me I woul be very grateful. Keep up the good work mate, :)

Will this work on a ford focus 2012?

I followed your video, but the reset isn’t done. When I get the message after turning the engine off and then to position II, I press both pedals for 20 seconds or more, but nothing happens. The malfunction message doesn’t go away. It’s a Ford Focus 2009 diesel. Any ideas?

This is only useful for oil change message and not for an engine fault code! Only with scan tools and the fault fixed can delete an error message

yes but does it happen again after you have parked car then try to start it again,thats what mine does,like i said the car runs fine,there is another way that i can start car and that is turn the ignition on and off three times with a second in between,that works for me

Hey, any idea if this is going to reset the BMS as well? Or do you know any procedure to reset the BMS on the focus 2009?

How do I do this for a manual 2009 focus?

Does it work on manual

does this work on manual cars

Any idea what to do with one that has manual gear ? ;-))

I've been having this issue on an 09 Focus diesel when fully loaded and often up hills. It loses power, but not limp mode, and an engine restart usually fixes it, although sometimes only for a matter of minutes. I don't know if the 2 pedal trick would help as it resets on restart anyway. I've also had the yellow malfunction light but no change in engine performance so all a bit odd. It always happens when in France which is an extra worry.

how old is it to fix this error?

Had the message pop up when I went a little too fast on the dual carriageway, pulled over and restarted and it’s gone away, not sure if I should be concerned or if it was just my fast driving

Hi....what about engine malfunction on 2008 petrol Ford focus....intermittent fault....it makes a chiming sound and it's written on the dash board engine malfunction. Any help appreciated.

This happened to me yesterday, but by time I got home it was off, but my car does need brake discs and callipers as it’s seizing up and wheel red hot, many, many things can bring this warning up, people get a fright when they see those words, and rightly so lol

Merci
