2009 Ford Focus Battery Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the battery cables on 2009 Ford Focus?

  A: You should start battery cable service and repair work by taking off the battery tray and the air cleaner assembly components. The battery ground cable requires the nut to be removed before setting the body terminal aside until you tighten it to 9 Nm (80 lb-in). First remove the bolt then set the battery ground cable engine terminal aside while tightening it to 47 Nm (35 lb-ft) during installation before removing the ground cable. Tighten to 12 Nm (106 lb-in) the Battery Junction Box (BJB) terminal after removal of the positive battery cable nut then setting the terminal aside. The installation process starts with disconnecting the positive battery cable from the engine control harness connector then removing the positive battery cable starter solenoid terminal nut tighter to 12 Nm (106 lb-in), followed by the positive battery cable starter solenoid wire terminal nut which requires a torque of 6 Nm (53 lb-in). To begin, remove the positive battery cable from the starter solenoid before taking out the 2 positive battery cable clips then the 4 alternator battery cable locators. Place the generator B+ boot aside and unfasten its nut before setting the B+ terminal to the right torque value at 17 Nm (150 lb-in) for installation. The process ends by taking out the positive battery cable and alternator cable then continuing by returning to the original installation sequence.
