  3. Hi all,I have a problem with the galaxy. I connected a trailer to the gal which is fitted with twin electrics for the caravan. When i did this it blew the front and back offside side lights. I have checked the fuses and changed the side light bulbs which had blown and where black when i took them out all other lights work fine including the nearside side lights. It also blew the tail lights on a friends pajero which we cant find a fault with the bulbs or fuses please help

  5. Hi all and a happy new year, I have a little problem with the breaks at the moment and was hoping someone can help. I booked the car in for a service and was told that the front discs where warped and need replacing. I didn't have them done at fords but at a Tyre and break place in Dagenham called Elites. I did notice before having them done that now and again when pushing the break pedal that it felt like nothing was happening and that you wasn't going to stop, so i was hoping that when i had them replaced this was going to stop, but its still doing it. It happens more when going slowly and when i go to stop at a junction or roundabout. The rest of the time they are fine like they are working properly. I had the discs and pads changed, i have had a look at them and noticed that the discs have score marks on them and i get some squealing when stopping, do you think these disc might be warped as well. thanks peeps
  6. Well the gals been to fords for its 110000 service and to have the ABS light sorted out. Had a phone call regarding the ABS and this is what they found. ABS ring has a crack , which is why the light is on. To fix it a new ring has to be fitted, but as it comes as part of the drive shaft/CV joint a new one of these has to be fitted, the cost being

  9. Hi all, I'm thinking of getting a newer Galaxy but as i tow a caravan I'm not sure weather to stay with a manual or to try an auto. Are they any good for towing, anyone with a auto and tows a caravan can you please let me know of any problems you have when towing or does it make it easier
  10. Hi Jonny75, I have a 1998 110bhp Galaxy same as you. Shame i didn't know you was looking for one as I'm putting mine up for sale. I have twin electrics and the fixed tow bar and no you don't need to cut the bumper, but you will need to remove it and take out the black moulded bit inside the bumper. Mine was done by a tow bar company

  19. Thanks guys, all fitted and working, couldn't have done it without your help
  20. Thanks guys, all fitted and working, thanks for the help and pictures
  21. Cheers guys,I can solder the wires together but the wires look a bit thin near the connector
  22. Update...I have taken the fuse-board forward now and can get my hand behind and can fit the module behind, Now what is the best way to connect the wires. Should i use the connectors that came with the kit or strip some of the plastic away from the wires and the connect there and cover with tape
  23. Thanks for the link, I have taken the lower dash off and have located the areas shown i can see where i need to connect the wires just a bit uneasy about pulling the fuse board out to get behind it, also where do the 2 brown indicator wires go to
  24. Right guys, I have got the kit but am not very good when it comes to this kind of thing so may need a bit of help please. I have had a look under the passenger seat and there is nothing to connect to so where do i put it I have a 1998 TDI 1.9 so any help would be grateful
  25. Hi all, I have just ordered the remotes. Is it as easy as it looks to fit, i hope so. After years of the remote locking not working and trying to reprogram them i gave up and use the key to open/lock the car, but the o/s lock is now playing up, ie- can unlock but wont turn to lock, so i hope theses remotes work. Will let you know how i get on
