need to see what DTC it throws up so you can solve the problem. without that its just pissing in the wind really. have you got bluefin or dreamscience?
Also let me just check whether the focus dash can tell you what DTC is present.
*EDIT* don't think it does but here's the dash unlock thing you can do:
With your key in the ignition push the trip reset button and hold it down, turn your key to ignition on (all lights illuminated on clocks ) and wait for the word TEST to come up on the LCD display and then release the button, then you can scroll through a menu.

Bit of a trek from castleford
Try abs rings on shafts??
Cheapest option is a code read will cost you about £30, then you will know where to look.
