So I got up this morning. Started my svt. Let it run for a bit, then drove to work. After sitting for an hour and a half I go to my car to go to the bank. Starts fine, drives fwd fine. Stopped to open the gate at my work, and accidently forgot to take it out of gear... Clunk... So car died.ehh whatever, start it up again... Nothing... Not a thing, not even the warning lights are lighting up on the dash. So after about 2 hrs of fiddling through wires and fuses, I am officaly boned... Confused to hell... Anyone have an idear?

Its the sensor that tells if your clutch is pressed in possibly? Bypass it by touching the wires together.
Slower than your stock focus.

its not the sensor on the clutch. if you are not hearing any chimes and there is no warning lights then you probably don't have power going to your ignition switch. check for power at the ignition switch. if you have power at the ignition switch and there is nothing coming out then that is your problem. i just replaced one in an 07 wagon at work that was having simular problems.

Seeing as I don't have a radio installed... No. :lol: but on the other hand. The power windows don't work when its in the run position.
