i have a fiesta 04 1.4 zetec and i have EAC fail light on and also engine mgmt light too. It loses power and also when at traffic lights or slowing down my engine cuts out. I took it to an auto electrician for a diagnostic but was told he didnt know what was wrong and to take it to ford dealers.
I took it to ford to be told it was £80 +vat for diagnostic ! Later that day they called me to say they had cleared the codes and everything was fine, i picked the car up and on the way home the same thing happened. Spoke to Ford again where i took it back to them. Again later that day another phone call from them saying they needed to replace the whole PCM Module and would cost £830 ! I have not yet had the work done as i feel ford dont know what this problem is.
Any advice or recommendations??????

HI this is quite posible I was in the same boat. spent £200 fixing what I thought was wrong only to have to pay out for Diagnostic to find the management system is buggered. As I new the exact bits that have failed within the system we was able to bypass some of the managemnet system to keep the car on the road. What model and year fiesta is it ?
