How old is the battery?The last issue you had with the warnings and errors is probably due to the battery being flat.

Th car is at the ford dealership now so hopefully they can sort it out without to many dramas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon he got charged heaps by Fraud to say that the battery is flat. Hope this was not the case. Any possibility of getting an update please Deano 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
