Yes mate. Can hear it quite clearly. Surely it would attempt to turn over regardless of fuel being present.

It's a manual. Got the damn thing started 1/2 hour ago. On my way home from work. Had to call at sainsburys. Came out gues what? Car wouldn't start again. After a while it started & after driving 20 yds it cut out but fortunately started immediately after. Called at fuel station, filled up, car started so here I am updating this post at home. Certainly got me baffled.

It remains bright

It's a 51 plate galaxy 2.3 petrol by the way

When I put key in ignition and turn it to start the engine I don't even get a click. This is happening more and more frequently. I have fitted a new battery and replaced batteries in key fob. Any advice welcome.

Well after being inspired by gregors advice I've attacked this issue as well. No such luck this time unfortunately as all wiring was good. Still scratching head on this problem. Have tried cleaning up connections but nothing. Will try the contact spray tomorrow whilst at work - cheers avee.

Got to say gregors - absolutely spot on sound advice. Pulled back gaiter and lo n behold there was a broken wire. Made good the connection and for the 1st time since I've owned the vehicle all doors lock and unlock. Your a credit to the group. Cheers

Cheers for that - will have a look tomorrow

Will have a butchers tomorrow - thanks

I have a 51 plate galaxy. The central locking system works fine on all doors except the rear offside door which has to be unlocked/locked manually from inside. Any thoughts?

I have a 51 plate galaxy. The front passenger window switch will open the window but won't close it. Instead it has to be closed via the drivers door switch. Any thoughts?
