First and foremost, it is strongly advised not to deactivate the airbag for the passenger in a 2007 Ford Focus. The vehicle is equipped with an advanced sensing technology that will automatically turn off the airbag if the passenger weighs less than fifty pounds, which includes situations where you may be traveling with a small child or pet. However, I recognize that there may be situations where you have an elderly or vulnerable passenger, so I will provide the following information with caution. To deactivate the airbag, you can find the 7.5A fuse labeled "RCM" (Restraints Control Module) in the fuse and relay box and remove it. This should only be done in extremely rare instances, such as when conducting repairs on the passenger side dashboard. It is crucial that you do not operate the vehicle under normal conditions with the airbag deactivated in this manner.

Once you put the key in the ignition, turn it until the white mark lines up with the 'off' position. Then, switch on the ignition to check if the airbag is turned off. You should see the airbag deactivation warning symbol lit up on the dashboard.
