Default Hands free in Focus

Hi All. Most modern cars have a 4 or 5 pin connector that you plug in hands free kits to. I am assuming Focus does too. Does anyone know where it would be hidden? Usually taped or cable tied under a panel.

Really hopeing you're not going to say it is wired via. the stereo connector.....


Cheers, Leakey

I've gone through all archived threads, and I realise this has been asked before, but its never been answered!! Same with just about every other web site....

Surely someone has a pic of where this plug is, or where it can be wired to?

This kind of thing would be a good sticky in the TECH' area I would have thought.

If someone can help, I would be happy to take pics of the install, and post up.

Not an answer, but the back of the unit has a few connectors missing in the loom plug, the most interesting is the one next to the aux input.

Hmmm, interesting eh?

If I put the wire here.... pffffboooghhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aaaahhhh!!

I did some digging on some euro sites and it looks like an adaptor can be purchased that plugs in to the back of the stereo, then plug the loom in to that. Has the (5) pin plug hanging off that loom then to plug the Nokia in to. Would like to buy locally, but if no source here, then UK Ebay it is!

I'll post pics when it happens.

PS - do you know how hard it is to make an explosion sound with letters only??!!
I think I did a good job!
