Hi, I have a 2003 2.3 Zetec with a problemaic fuel gauge. It generally reads full most of the time but does move all over the place each time i start the car. The only way i can get it to read true (ish) is when i disconect then reconnect the battery. It will go the the correct position for about 2 starts of the engine then seems to settle where ever it likes there after!! This is very frustrating and we have been cought out on a coupe of occations resorting to carrying a fuel can with us. I have tried another cluster and this did not register at all. If you turn the key but not to start the engine the gauge goes up to just under 1/4 of a tank then drops down to zero and tells me to refuel. I have changed the battery as this was low on power but with no improvement :-( Has anyone had simular problems or even any ideas what i need to do? Any help would be great!!

Me too. must be faulty fob by the sounds of it. no joy at all entering program mode :-(

Most of the clocks for Galaxy are digital and fit on the inside of roof, would the wiring be there for me to adapt?

I have just bought an 03 galaxy zetec. for some reson the previous owner had cut out the time clock on the dashboard. i have looked for second hand locks but the cheapest has been around

Finding this site very useful and has saved me about

Hi, New to this site as just bought the obvious. I have heard that the fuel gauge dancing can be due to low power in the battery? I had my battery checked as have the dancing gauge problem and my battery does need replacing. I charged the battery up over night and it seemed to fix the gauge but only for a few days. Buying a new battery anyway as starter motor is struggling so will post if any joy.
