To change the power steering fluid on a ford focus you should follow these steps: start the engine and let it run until the temperature gauge reaches the normal operating range. With the engine idling, turn the steering wheel all the way to full lock, and then turn it the other way to opposite lock. Do this several times.Turn off the engine, and open the hood. Locate the power steering reservoir. It is usually on or near the engine, and can have a white or yellow reservoir and a black cap. Take out dipstick, wipe clean, and then check the levels with a rag. If it is low, add more.
