• Ford Focus Saloon - Heated Front Windscreen - Engine systems warning 22 Jan 2013 (Forum)
  Hi When I turn on my heated front windscreen I get an Engine System Error come up.  The battery then sounds flat although it isn't and I can't start the car.  The garage can't identify the fault as it doesn't do it when they have the car.  Anyone know what is causing it?
