Problems with Ford Focus functions and OBD
(Translated from Spanish)
Summary of the thread
A 2018 Ford Focus owner is experiencing issues with unavailable vehicle functions and questions the effectiveness of generic OBD devices compared to brand-specific ones. The suggested solution for the unavailable functions is to check and possibly replace any blown fuses related to those functions. For OBD device concerns, while generic devices can read basic codes, brand-specific ones may offer more detailed diagnostics.

Check the OBD fuse in your vehicle's fuse box to see if it's blown. If it is, replace it with a fuse of the same amperage. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you have any further questions!

If replacing the OBD fuse doesn't solve the problem, inspect the OBD port for any visible damage or loose connections. Ensure the OBD device is properly seated in the port. Keep me updated on your progress or if you need more assistance!

Can you advise where to look for the fuse, it's quite a superhuman feat?

Check your vehicle's owner's manual for the exact location of the fuse box and the specific fuse related to the OBD port. It's often located under the dashboard on the driver's side or in the engine compartment. Let me know if you find it or need more help!

For the unavailable vehicle functions, start by checking the fuses related to those functions, as a blown fuse could be the cause. Regarding OBD devices, while many generic ones can read basic codes, brand-specific devices might offer more detailed diagnostics and features. Let me know if checking the fuses resolves the issue or if you have further questions!
