Clicking from front on 97 Mondeo

Problem:

If you have noticed a clicking noise coming from the front of your 1997 Mondeo it is most likely caused by the outer CV joint. The clip on the boot can either be missing or broken, causing water to leak into the CV.

Solution:

You are best fixing this as quickly as possible if you want to avoid damaging the CV joint. To fix this, you will need to fit new clips to resolve the issue.

Heating problems

Problem:

The 2002 Mondeo has been known to only blow out cold air when set to hot. This problem occurs when the heater flap gets stuck in the heater housing.

Solution:

The best way to fix this problem is to use a torx T50 which should free the heater flap, allowing it to move to the correct setting.

Remote control unlocking issues

Problem:

Any Mondeo after 2001 could experience issues with unlocking the car using the remote from a distance of more than five metres. This is caused by the radio transmission being overly shielded.

Solution:

You can solve this problem by having an extension fitted to the transmission line to improve the signal.

Fuel flap problems

Problem:

Again with the 2001 Mondeo there are problems associated with the fuel flap not opening. The problem is due to the fuel flap not integrating properly with the spring release.

Solution:

This can be remedied by fitting a new revised flap which connects properly with the release spring.

Handbrake lever clutch problems

Problem:

This problem is associated with the 2001 Mondeo. You may find that you are having to pull the handbrake lever too far, which is due to deterioration of the clutch mechanism.

Solution:

This can be fixed by having a clip fitted to the clutch spring stop which will then stop the spring from extending as far.
