Halloween Man

Thanks Guys !! That clears that up ...

Hi , Just wondering if the rear side window demister on the drivers side (RHS) , is activated by the demister control for the back window ? I noticed the connection on the actual window had popped off , and before connecting it again I tested it with a multi meter to see if 12 Volts was present when the rear window demister was on ... needless to say 0 volts ! Does anyone know how this heated window is activated ? Thanks

Gave up up on the leak .... traded in it for a new(er) Gal .... oh the smell freshness is a plesent change :lol:

yes , I have checked the scuttle links but found no reference to this , (one mentioned a plastic bag!) , has any body seen / felt this foamy thing while cleaning the scuttles ?

Just wondering if you have made any progress with the leak ? I replaced the windscreen last week and discovered the leak is ....wait for it....... STILL THERE !

I have a leak in both footwells and have tried EVERYTHING .... I have a question about the scuttle drains ..... They are not blocked and water runs freely out , when I was checking them I noticed a damp soft thing ! (see picture of drivers side scuttle ) - could this be a filter , not fitted correctly which is redirecting the rain to the footwells ? Thanks...

I know the feeling ... :angry: I have the exact same problem with a 2002 Tdi (leakin drivers footwell) - I have tried every f!%$ing thing under the sun - and I still have the leak in the drivers footwell. I have unblocked scuttle drains been to Ford (useless trip ! ) checked TIS for info and did all recommended checks checked all door seals , grommets etc sealed windscreen sealed joins in floorpan with silicon. and lots more .... I think FORD are responsible for this major design flaw - seems to be very common. Wonder could we take action ? :angry: Any suggestions/ feed back .. much appreciated

Thanks Dave - I owe you a pint ! If I find the leak I will buy you a keg ! :angry:

Would anybody be able to supply me with the chapter please? Thanks in advance Section 501-25D: BODY REPAIRS - WATER LEAKS

No Unfortunetly..

Major leaks in both foot wells

Another question - floor heater vents - The vent behind the handbrake , could water travel this far due to blocked scuttles ? It is this area (behind the handbrake) which is wet . Thanks... Dan

Thanks for the reply - Does the washer pipe run in a channel near the door (wrapped in black tape along with wiring ?) This is the only thing I can see running from the front of the car to the back. The spray of water from the front wheels seems to be the culprit for driving the water uphill !, however I would like to check the water pipe that you mentioned as well. Thanks again

Hi , I discovered the cause of a leak in my 2002 Galaxy, when I lifted the carpet last night. In the floor directly behind the front passenger seat (LHS) , there is a circular hole about 1 inch diameter , which water was coming in. The grommet / plug obviously got lost ... When I tried to get a grommet from Ford , they were not aware of this part. Has any body come across this ? Thanks, Dan
