Thanks for all that. I'm on a big learning curve with the ole Galaxy & I can answer my own question partially, which might be of help to others regarding the 3a fuse. What I thought was a blown fuse was in fact intact, it just looked blown (poor design& I'm a bit thick not testing it ! ) Anyway I removed the fuse, thinking it was blown.----The result was----Lost all central locking---Back doors double locked & would not open----passenger door worked on the key but not electrically----drivers door worked on the key normally---global windows had a mind of their own, going down but not up, door switches raised the windows without ignition on----lost all interior lights. However, the car started and drove, with no warning lights showing. If any of this stuff happens to ya---it could be that 3a fuse ! !

Whilst tracing an electrical fault,now sorted, I found a blown 3a fuse in the auxiliary fuse box.Nowhere in the owners guide, or the Haynes manual can I find any reference to what the 5 links & the 3 blade fuses protect. Can anybody help me please.
