  1. My rear washer never worked since purchasing my Galaxy. Anyway one day I followed the the washer line from the front and I found that there was somekind of joint near the underside of the passenger seat. I cant fully remember as it was a few years ago I sorted the problem. The rear washer line runs along the front passenger carpet and plastic panels. If that makes sense. Under the front passenger seat I found there is a compartment with a black box, which makes the beeping noise for the parking sensor. Try not to mess around with any connections as I unplugged something and then the airbag light came on my dash. Luckily I have a mate who has the little machine to remove lights from the dash. The compartment was actually flooded with water and realised that the rear windscreen washer line has a connection there which had come loose. So i reconnected and cleared the water. So now the rear washer works.
  2. If its a manual 6 speed its on the gear box. next to the starter motor
  3. Just wondered does this noise come about when you push your clutch in? Or just everytime driving over uneven ground...
  4. 2003 Ford Galaxy 1.9tdi 130bhp ASZ Engine code Replacement of the MFU or Fuse box circuit board....... If you can find one of these MFU's or fuse boards for cheap then just follows Nicks photos and you should be ok. You need to be a little bit mechanically confident, not really for a novice. My problem was with my left indicator, just did not flash at all only a faster than usual intermitent clicking. Fords design of the indicator relay being soldered straight onto the circuit board was totally mind boggling. Most other cars have a simple pull out and push in relay. I can only guess it was so that people would only go back to a Fords dealer or one of their franchises etc and spend big money. I asked a ford dealer how much one these boards were and was quoted £989 plus VAT! So maybe £1500 or so with labour.....! LOL Anyway I checked on ebay and found they were around the £50 - £100 mark for a used fuse box, not bad. Also on ebay a guy was selling the actual relay only for £50 but that requires you to be a pretty compitent solderer as the relay is only about an inch or less in length and has 8 points which need soldering. However i couldn't wait for postage etc from ebay and couldnt risk having a dodgy board sent to me etc as my MOT was due in a couple of days. So I called up my spares scrap yard Brancroft Autos who are based in London Edmonton. They have more or less everything 95% of the time. They said a 2003 Ford Galaxy just turned up in the yard and they were taking it apart and I could have the fuse box for £40. I picked up the fuse box and then fitted it all in and tried the indicator and yay it all worked. However have to remind anyone who changes the MFU that your remote central locking coding is on that board. So basically I had to reprogamme my key fob which took not even 5mins. There are many threads on this forum which will tell you how to do this and you only need the 1 key. Regards all Galaxy owners
