Problems with Ford Focus petrol engine 2007: Engine does not start and indicator light active

Hello folks! My 2007 Ford Focus gasoline engine is acting up. It won't start, the engine suddenly cuts out and the indicator light in the speedometer is on. I suspect a defective water sensor. Has anyone had similar experiences and can give me some troubleshooting tips? I am particularly interested in how this problem was solved in the workshop. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I had a similar issue with my 2005 Ford Fiesta, I only have a little experience with cars. I took my car to the garage and it turned out that the cable connection to the sensor was faulty. It cost me 365 euros to fix the problem. Can you maybe tell me a bit more about your car so I can help you better? Maybe it's the same problem.

Hey, thanks for your answer. My Focus already has 75307 km on it and had its last service about six months ago. It's been running great so far, so the whole thing has hit me quite unexpectedly now. Your experience sounds pretty similar, maybe it really is the cable connection. I will definitely ask the garage about it. Thanks again!

Hey, no problem, that's a really bad situation. It definitely sounds like something is wrong. Given the mileage, it could well be that something has come loose. But don't worry, it's usually fixed quickly. In any case, ask the garage about the cable connection. If it is, it's not that expensive and can be done quickly. Good luck, hopefully it's nothing serious!

Thank you for your encouraging words! You're right, the best thing to do is probably to take the car to the garage as soon as possible and ask about the cable connection to the sensor. I hope it's nothing too serious. I'll keep you posted on what happens. Thanks again for your help and recommendations!
