Hi,

I am having problem with my 04 Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec. I have been on holiday for 3 weeks and I started driving Focus during this cold snap 3 weeks ago. I have observed voltage fluctuations causing the lights and heater fans and occasionally getting the battery warning light on the panel and some clicking sounds from the fuse box behind the glove box.

The AA guys tested the battery and said every this looks alright and asked me to reset the battery by disconnecting for an hour and reconnect. I did it and solved my earlier fluctuations clicking sounds from the fuse box. But still the battery warning light is on.

When I start the engine I don't see the warning light, exactly after a while (30 seconds) it appears again and stays on. When this light is on, I can feel the little difference in the engine.

Now, I have observed my heated front window button (this was working alright earlier and cleared my ice last week) doesn't illuminate or doesn't work. But the rear one works well. Is this is causing the battery warning light?

Last week Halfords guys checked the battery and alternator again said that seems to be alright. I have checked the fan belts and they look alright for me.

I have been driving this car since 3 weeks with this problem. I am using heaters and lights etc as usual, but car did not stop even for a while.

How to solve my heated front window problem?
