Won't Start

Asked by GuruN916T Oct 08, 2019 at 11:23 AM about the 2016 Ford Focus SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It intermittently won't start, will just click.
According to the onboard computer, ran a
systems check and no problem. If I continue
to try and start it, it will eventually turn over.
Also have tried to roll and pop start it,
apparently they've put a safety device on the
car to prevent you from doing that

Have you checked for corrosion on the negative battery cable? That little module on it does wonky things if it has corrosion on it. The cable costs $60 to replace if it is.
