I have a March 2015 Facelift Focus Zetec S 1.0 125ps. Is there a way I can tell for sure which dedicated loom I need ? I want 7 pin but not sure if I need 'with TP' or 'without TP'. Nobody at the Ford main dealer had heard of 'Trailer Prep'. Thanks

Hello Mr Hetherington,
There are ford people and then there is ME... I spent 22 years there. Please tell me your full reg and I'll contact my mate there and ask about the tow prep.
Thanks
Hi Phil Addison
It sounds like I've struck gold finding you ! For what seemed like a straight forward question, it's proving very difficult to get a straight forward answer. My Ford dealer put me in touch with their recommended towbar fitter and he said he just used the universal wiring kits because the dedicated kits were a waste of money - not what I wanted to hear !
My car is a March 2015, '15 plate, Facelift Focus Zetec S 1.0 EcoBoost petrol 125ps, Reg Num MA** AOX, VIN Num WF05XXGCC5EA32379
Thanks very much

Hello Mr Hetherington,
Nope, you do not have tow prep, sadly, so it's the more expensive kit here...

OK Phil, thank you very much. Shame it's not the news I wanted to hear but it's great to find somebody who knows what they're talking about "
Thanks again

Hi, How do I know if my 2014 focus requires the electrics with trailer prep or not?
Hi Bruce
YOU WILL NEED TO RING THE DEALERSHIP AND ASK IF YOUR VEHICLE HAS BEEN BUILT WITH TRAILER PREPARATION
7pin dedicated wiring with trailer preparation £94.36 inc vat 307442300107
7pin dedicated wiring without trailer preparation £151.92 inc vat 19060527RC-ECO
i can confirm that the electrics will need programming to the vehicle
Kind regards
