You'll need a blue 15 fuse. Front and back take different sizes but any decent garage should have them. All fitting instructions are in the owners manual I got a small portable compressor pump that plugs into these sockets and it blew the fuses

Hi 2008 Galaxy 1.8 TDi Ghia Was driving on a busy dual carriageway yesterday and slowing down (going down through the gears) on the approach to a roundabout. The steering suddenly became heavy and I realised that engine had cut out. Tried to restart a number of times but while the starter engaged nothing happened. A few people stopped to help and we pushed the car into the side of the road and relative safety. Called breakdown assist who said they'd be there in an hour. Another man stopped and we tried again to start it and this time it spluttered twice but didn't start. His theory was that it was some sort of fuel issue,e.g dirty fuel line, air pocket in the the line or maybe even the diesel pump. He left and we waited and I then tried again (probably about 45 mins now since it cut out) and it started. By now we were getting late for a show that the kids were going to so we decided to cancel the service call and go. No further problems - drove 100 miles home later on and everything is fine since. In hindsight I'm sorry I didn't wait for the breakdown assist to arrive as now I have no idea what happened and is it going to happen again etc. I did fill the car up full with diesel (from nearly empty) a few days ago. There were no warning lights on the dash (that I noticed anyway) and I can't think of anything else. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated Liam

Thanks a million - I'll have another go at it tonight now

only joined myself yesterday - seems to be more information here than I could ever need. Hopefully I won't need most of it anyway !!!

Hi - I'm new and think I've found the answer to this. The trouble is that I need to download a picture that is embedded in the following thread but I'm not allowed to http://www.fordgalaxy.org.uk/ford/index.ph...mp;#entry117136 One of my keys (2004 TDI Ghia) wont start the car since one of the kids pulled it apart. Either the chip has fallen out or the code has got corrupted. I'm trying to get a look at what this chip looks like as I dont want to risk pulling the other key apart incase it gets wrecked as well. Any help would be appreciated
