Hi All,
Recently picked up a 2012 Focus MKII Trend .Great car by the way. The manual refers to being able to open the windows using the Key Fob. Various sites on the net state the same. I cant seeem to get it to work and wonder if it is only for higher models. Anyone have any experience or knowledge on this? Cheers |

not sure on the current model, but with my old LS Focus you held down the unlock button on the keyfob for about 3-4 seconds and the windows would all come down.

my MY08 LT focus has global opening. You hold the "unlock" symbol on the remote control down for about 3-4 seconds and all four windows come down great on hot days to open the car up. My manual says "where fitted which suggest some variations may not have it installed

If it is the same as LV when putting them down you need to press once and hold, they will go down.
To go up i need to press once, then press and hold.

If it's not working by simply pressing and holding either the unlock button on the remote to open the windows or the same process to close them via the lock button on the remote then there is obviously something wrong. It's possible that there is a setting which needs to be activated on yours, this should be able to be done quite simply via the OBD port using a suitable reader. It's under warranty so I would suggest taking to the dealer and having it checked or as it's not really urgent, mention it at your next service

I followed a similar procedure (may not have been exact) before for my 2006 Focus after I changed the battery, it worked. |
