2014 Ford Focus ST Check Engine Light Reset

The procedure to reset the check engine light on a 2014 Ford Focus ST begins with a complete OEM diagnostic scan to identify stored fault codes and any pending issues.

We use genuine Ford parts and adhere to factory procedures so repairs are accurate and your warranty stays intact.

We also provide service financing and rotating service specials to ease immediate expense. To protect your vehicle and ensure a proper, lasting reset, schedule service with our certified team today.
