Description of the problem | This is in regards to my 2014 ford focus. When parking the vehicle the engine will not shut off, even with the key out of the ignition! Faulty washer fluid pump leaks into electrical connector for washer pump and washer fluid gets pushed into wiring loom past the firewall and down into the bcm( body control module) connector part c2280d. The washer fluid then runs from the connector onto the male pins of the bcm corroding the pins and shorting out the bcm. This causes the vehicle to exhibit many faults, the worst are the vehicle not starting or as in my case, the vehicle would not shut off and continues to run even with the key out of the ignition. Ford recalled 433,000 vehicles for engines that don't shut off but my vehicle was not captured in the "build date" for the recall. I believe i missed the recall by weeks or a month at most? |
