There's a good chance it's the ignition switch. Before replacing get some electronics cleaner. It comes in a spray can. Spray the key, insert, and turn it back and forth. Do this numerous times. You can also spray a couple quick squirts in the ignition. Be sure to hold a rag over the can while doing so to prevent spray back. You don't want to get it in your eyes or even on your skin so wear ppe. Before starting your car let it dry for 10 minutes or so.

If this doesn't work I would replace the ignition switch.

Hope this helps.

My ford focus 2008 sedan boot will not open its a keyless entry

If you have not yet replaced the keychain remote's battery, it is probably due.
Most remotes use a battery type available at drugstores and the computer department of major stores such as Walmart, etc.

I have a 2008 ford focus sedan, manual transmission. Car ran fine on Saturday, sat until today. Car was totally dead. Tried to jump the battery, when car tried to turn over, there was a horrible noice in...

The starter is not getting enough amps,and the starter is groaning and clicking ,and so,on,if you replace the battery,be sure to plug a 12 volt power source into the cig,lighter,to keep the memory to the computer.But have the battery checked,it is most likely the problem,and the terminals to the battery need to be cleaned ,real good,shiny.

2003 ford focus SE, WONT OPEN DOORS OR HOOD, Battery is dead dont have keys , they have to stay in the tumbler because broken pins.

You should be able to take proof of ownership and a picture ID to your local Ford dealer and they should be able to retrieve you key code on line and cut you a blank key(no pats) that would open the door.
