Hi all,
Started a thread the other day about a general misfire issue - now Ive lost all engine power and its just getting worse.
Im a little lost here, few basic questions below in bold.
www.focusfanatics.com
TL;DR - Cylinder 1 misfires / blows ignition coils after rain - replaced 3 so far. Never any oil / debris in the chamber. Happened again yesterday - now its ignition system is dead & showing weird Service prompts. 100k Miles.
Gave these codes yesterday :
P0118 - Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - Circuit High Input
P0351 (pd) - Ignition Coil A Primary / Secondary Circuit
P2300 (pd) - undefined code
P2301 (pd) - undefined code
Is the pcm / ignition system not engaging because one of those codes are set ?
After I lost power the dash started acting crazy :
-Showed a red " Engine Fault Service Now" prompt
-Trip 1 / Trip 2 details not feeding through ; Miles till empty / Miles driven etc show no numbers, just dashes
Went back today with a buddy to try and get it going - Wouldnt turn over & the lights dimmed while trying. No charge. Tried to jump but still wouldnt turn over.
Whats draining the battery suddenly ?
Owned it ~3years, always had weird battery / electric problems.
Went to the 'Information' tab (where it shows door / hood open etc) on the dash to see the alerts again ; This thing is all ****** up (See Attached pictures)
It shows :
-"Hill Start Assist Not Available"
-"Engine Fault Service Now"
-Its also saying "Engine : ON" ; Normally that only shows when the car is actually on.
Is this why the battery is drained ?
Tire Pressure Sensor prompt randomly popped & light came on while cycling through those.
I wanted to run codes again & go through some diagnostic steps today... said **** it when the Tire Pressure Sensor showed up. Happened out of nowhere - whole system starting to get shorted ?
Anyone have any insight ?
Never seen those dash prompts before - Are they whats stopping it from engaging ? Or just a symptom computer getting fried ?
Does this have to be seen by a dealer first to get everything cleared?
Planning on borrowing a beefy ODB reader that gives better freeze frame data / a few things to test wires & run diagnostic tests on Cylinder 1 for the P0351 code. Planning on looking for blown fuses aswell.
Saw the TCB wiring harness sticky today, will be checking it all out. If theres answers there / other threads please point them out.
Im decent with cars but its not my trade & money is tight. Spent all day looking and brain is fried.

2014 Focus eating ignition coils after it rains ?
Hello, Have a 2014 Focus SE that keeps running through ignition coils. Started within the last few months. At first threw a few codes (p301 / p0118) & ended up replacing the ignition coil & spark plug for cylinder 1. Replaced the coolant sensor too. I noticed when its damp outside the temp...
