When it's flashing a fault code will be stored for the HVAC which could be low gas pressure.

07 Galaxy Not Turning Over And Other Problems
chrispb123456 replied to Martino's topic in MKIII Technical section
Advise getting battery tested if it's still the original, low battery volts causes all sorts of issues -
Seems To Have Lost Power Again
chrispb123456 replied to asp383's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Yep MAF or wiring , MAF doesn't always give a fault code unless you run the car with it disconnected. Turbo will normally give pos or neg deviation -

Helllllllllllllllllloooooooooooo Again

An old neighbour of mine has just got a sedona off of ebay, done a few jobs on it then test drove it and was quite impressed also roomy inside, although it's a 2.9 diesel it didn't seem overly more powerful than the galaxy. -

Mk2 Vs Mk3 - Did They Improve It?
chrispb123456 replied to Scope's topic in Questions about the New MKIII
Having had the MK3 now for nearly two years still not convinced it's a better car but bare in mind the MK1&2 is really a VW and the MK3 is totally Ford. No spare on galaxy or s-max, in reality never needed one in my ten years of galaxy's. MPG is not better in fact going by the computer 37 to 38 and that's driving really miserly,start using the power and this reduces drastically. Steering is very precise on the MK3 (electronic power steering) The ride is not so good on bad roads, suspension is much firmer on MK3 We went for the six speed manual box because I'm not that keen on the powershift auto but with hindsight it may have been better choice as I can really struggle to reverse up my driveway without stalling it especially when loaded up, seems reverse gear ratio is to high, OK if you want to do 40 MPH in reverse lol Personally if I had the choice I would prefer a new MK2 as I think the overall experience and drive is better. Don't let that put you off this is only my opinion have some test drives before deciding. -
Central Locking: Feature Or Failure?

This is only for MK3 vehicles, just noticed DoctorStar posted in the MK2 section, I'm sure Greg will move it across :) -
Central Locking: Feature Or Failure?
chrispb123456 replied to DoctorStar's topic in Questions about the New MKIII
Welcome to the forum. Sounds like the feature is enabled, to open all doors with the fob press and hold both lock and unlock buttons together for a few seconds the indicators should flash to confirm, you should then be able to open all doors as normal. Flashing light usually indicates a fault on system -

2001 Tdi Power Issues?
chrispb123456 replied to Adam1's topic in Ford Galaxy Technical Section MK I MK II
Now you can make a note of those codes then clear the codes, once you done that take car for a drive and then recheck see if the same faults return. 17552 could be from running the engine with MAF disconnected. 17964 is underboost which could be a leak in the air charge pipe work or damaged intercooler or maybe perished vacuum pipework on the boost control N75 valve, turbo actuator or vanes stuck -
Welcome. Probably broken/chaffed wiring in the rubber door gaiters (common problem) also tailgate can have similar wiring problems see links below may help you. http://www.fordgalaxy.org.uk/ford/index.php/topic/8401-checking-wires-from-door-to-pillar/?do=findComment&comment=64104 http://www.fordgalaxy.org.uk/ford/index.php/topic/10371-galaxy-door-boot-wiring-inspection-repair/?do=findComment&comment=82231
