Hi mate

Diesel petrol? All same engine code?

Just respray or big repaires? Scan ? Booth heat related or welding with battery on? Ask questions..

Nothing I've heard as common but shouldn't be too difficult to diagnose...

Just my 2p.....

unless the internal temp is getting very hot and causing the immo in clocks processer to shutdown, or even make the crystal go too fast (heat can affect slightly).

Next one remove the speedo before grilling and see what happens.

Think logically that places like france and spain and usa the ambiant (nice word) temprture must be frigging hot.

Suggest and only a suggest is from thick people with ford focus clock is to
spray with UB40 and it cures them, which would suggest a capaictor tyring out

so what has happened to the other ones?

Hi

Have you tried Disconnecting the Battery and reconnecting again and see if any luck.
