- In this video I go over the removal and installation procedure for a starter on a 2012-2018 Ford Focus 2.0L equipped with a DPS6 transmission.
As mentioned in the video the front end of the vehicle will have to be jacked up in order to gain access to the starter. The vehicle will have to be jacked up and properly supported. Instructions on how to do this properly were not given in this video. You will have to reference your repair manual for this information.
Warning ⚠️: Improperly lifting and supporting your vehicle can result in serious personal injury or death. You must reference a reputable repair manual for information on how to do this properly.

Thanks allot for this, with the engine out of the car it was much easier to see how to perform the procedure 👍
What the hell . Do it in the car. We driveway mechanics can't do it with the motor out
Thank you very much for this video, it was very useful for me ! I am A.C. from Romania and had a 2015 yr. Ford Focus 2.0L from US.
Glad it helped
You are a champion
Thanks 👍🏾
The two ends hat rubber insulating strip protrude a bit from the cavity. How is it supposed to sit against the starter when you reinstall it? Seems like it gets in the way.
It may have come into contact with oil or fluid causing it to swell a bit. I usually trim it flush with the bell housing if this happens. However if it's only protruding a millimeter or two I don't ever worry about it.
VERY GOOD THANKS WAS HELPFULL
Glad it helped
Great vid good job
Had to replace it in a year and a half again . Had oil on pinion gear . Trying to find actual oil leak . This mechanic said it's definitely from real seal . Also have valve cover oil leak which might be causing this . In your opinion , can top leak get into starter gear ? Or is it pretty tightly sealed against from the outside ? And this other mech said it was rear main seal .. yeah will still get another opinion and even try to find it after I clean it a bit .
What year is your Focus. A lot of the early years are notorious for leaking transmission input shaft seals. This could possible be a cause too. Valve cover leaks can diffidently get in there. Rear main seals as well as oil pans are known sources of oil leaks in this area. Not uncommon to have more than one leak.
I have a 2015 Ford Fiesta, question is...can the starter be removed without taking off the intake manifold?
Absolutely. I do it all the time. Don't have a video on it though.
Now the starter didn't work but once I removed it i and this other mechanic bench tested it and looked good soo I don't know what's going on ? Maybe under load trying to crank flywheel will fail ? Just bizaare . He said try it put it back on there and see what it does . check clean alll connections including battery .. Battery is about a month old . Also when I removed starter no cable / wire was attached to bracket that I remember so I guess it's there just loose ..
Are you getting power to the starter. Have you tested the circuits with a volt meter or a test light?
@@BarboursAutoHelp no I haven’t tested those yet and I suppose that could be it. This mechanic is older in his sixties soo he’s pretty experienced. He’s fixed other problems very easily and quickly within minutes. I’ll do as he says check clean all connections as best I can. As to cables besides looking at the ends for wear and damage what else do you recommend? Testing it at starter connections with volt meter?
Same Ford Focus C-Max 1.8 DM2
Thank you.
This doesnt look like my 2016 ford focus at all. Very confused
Is it a 2.0L?
