If the Ford system is similar to the Toyota hybrid synergy drive, there should be a powerful (2kW or so) DC-DC converter supplying the 12V system from the high voltage system, and the power to the high voltage system is provided by motor-generators. I don't believe the ABS system requires more than 2kW (which would need over a 160 ampere fuse), so a perfectly functioning DC-DC converter should mean bad battery lead contact should cause no ABS trouble. So, the diagnosis of the dealership can be incorrect, although it is probably better than the diagnosis of the tiny garage | |
