The cup holders are held in by tabs on the top of them, if you slide a feeler gauge in the gap above the cup holder one in top left and top right and push it to release the clips and the cup holder just pulls out. They are pushed in with the flat part horizontal. Dave

Headlight 'on' Buzzer Not Working
dlt1617 replied to galaxyking's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Hi a simple question does the interior light work when the driver's door is opened? If not it could be as easy as a faulty door switch. Best wishes Dave -
Buckled Wheel Sensation
dlt1617 replied to throbbinggristle's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
The roll restrictor is bolted to the bottom of the engine and goes back to the subframe, i you look about the middle of the car on the bottom of the sump towards the back you'll see it. -
Hi welcome to the forum I think you could have two problems, the cutting out whilst driving could be due to a faulty camshaft or crankshaft sender but also could be due to an idle control valve, When it cutout was it when the engine was idling or when at a constant throttle/accelerating. The problem of the ignition lights only was this when trying to start the car - if it was check using the search facility on the forum as the is a regular relay that needs replacing and I think the post includes a how to with pictures Best wishes Dave

Galaxy Hot Start Problem
dlt1617 replied to davellew's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Hi Dave the later Galaxys are not my strong point but some one may come in with a bettter/more accurate suggestion. When I worked for BMW there were two causes of low rail pressure (other than the sensor) one was that one injector was leaking so it dropped the pressure across the whole rail, the other was due to a pre supply pump fault. The pre supply pump was fitted in the fuel line from the tank to the high pressure pump and ran constantly with the ignition on. It could be that the pump fails when hot or it could be I'm talking out of my bottom! Best wishes Dave -
What model and year would be helpful, also what obvious things have you already done and what sort of juddering do you have i.e. from the engine, the clutch/take up of drive, at a certain speed, through the steering.....i think you've got the idea. The more information you supply the better the suggestions Dave

Loss Of Fifth And Sixth Gears
dlt1617 replied to suejonny's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Have you tried selecting the gears when stationary and the engine is off? If the gears can be selected cleanly then it could be a clutch problem rather than linkage/gearbox Best wishes Dave -
Air Filter Box On 1.9Tdi Ghia X 1999
dlt1617 replied to fivenecks's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
The pipe you are talking about is part of the air filter case, cheepest option buy one from a breaker/ebay. The reason the dealer is not sure which pipe you need is because the parts illustration would not show a small pipe clearly. Best wishes Dave -
Abs Brake Problem
dlt1617 replied to chrislloydie's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
My 02 1.9 tdi has an abs sensor which also includes the cable that goes to the front brake wear sensor on the passengerside which is the expensive one - not sure about the driveside..... Dave -
Abs Brake Problem
dlt1617 replied to chrislloydie's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
One of the abs sensors is fooling the control unit that the wheel is looked, as stated above it could be a cracked abs ring or a faulty sensor. http://www.ebay.com/itm/FORD-GALAXY-95-06-FRONT-ABS-RELUCTOR-RING-ABS011/370445363135 will give you an idea of what the ring looks like, it's fitted on the cv joint just behind the hub on the front (I'm not sure abou the rear ones as I've never looked!) If the rings are ok check the fault memory to find out which sensor Best wishes Dave -
Hi Kev, the wiring in the tailgate normally does not have a seperate wire going from the brake light to the rear light it just has a plug going to the brakelight with two wires in it. It is possible someone has tried wiring directly to the brake light on the rear lamp due to a wiring problem. If I was checking it I would get either a multimeter to check the voltage or a test light to see if there is a power supply going to the brake light when the brake pedal is depressed, if not test which pin on the rear lamp has a supply for the brake light and tap into that.(this may be what has happened hence the brown wire) Dave

Injector Wiring Loom Replacing
dlt1617 replied to aabrantes's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
A fewways of doing this both horrible! Remove the egr valve behind to gain access (total pig!) Or as I did remove it with a short spanner from under the egr valve (yes it horrible andyes I lost count of the number of times I dropped it!) Dave
