Not tried this myself, but according to a Focus Owners Site


    Insert Key but do not turn it on
    Press and hold the Trip Meter Reset Button
    While holding the reset button, start your car and continue holding the button
    Within 10 seconds, the display should change to "test" in LCD font and the needles will do a full sweeping. Release the Button

Pressing the button will now cycle through some 17 different modes

    1.Shows a Gauge Sweep
    2. Shows all 8's on the LCD (LCD TEST)
    3. Illuminates all the bulbs on the dash
    4. Displays hexadecimal value for ROM level
    5. Displays the hexadecimal value for EE level
    6. Shows DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)
    7. Digital Speedometer - mph
    8. Digital Speedometer - kph
    9. N/A
    10. Digital tachometer
    11.Fuel volume
    12. Engine coolant temperature
    13. Battery voltage
    14. ABS fail
    15. Electronic brake distribution (EBD) failure
    16. Illumination
    17. Crank Sense



I would test this myself, but SWMBO is out at the moment.

If its running rich when hot then injection temp sensor could be suspect too.

If the light's on then there are codes, just might not be able to read them without a reader ;)

You really need to read the codes before randomly replacing parts ;)
