Could it be the crankshaft sensor if so where is it located and would it cause the problems mentiond in my previous posts any Info would be great.....

And tonight has started to do exactly the same again.......ignition turns but does not crank over and no fault codes read any ideas for a fix would be great:)

Replaced relay 30 and cleaned up power cable and now runs like a dream.

Also found the fuse box by the battery the main power cable had had a bad repair and dodgy solder and if you wiggled it it caused the revs to drop etc so fingers crossed it is that if not the relay 27.

And it was started from cold or not started as that was the case but its been plugged in and no fault codes came up so going to try the relay

Is the mk1 exactly the same as the mk2 for changing relay 27/30 as going to attempt it Tomoz and is it advised to get the relay from ford or a car parts place gsf etc

hi have recently bought a 2005 2.3 ghia galaxy ive only been driving it a few weeks,it cut out a couple of times on a long trip down the coast,all i done was switch the engine off wait a few mins and away it went,a few days ago it broke down when the wife was driving and all the kids in the car,totally dead apart from ignition lights they all lit up but nothing,called the rac who came out and took a puzzled look at our car,after a few attempts at starting it whilst i was away getting the spare key,it sparked into life,where he said you have some form of engine management relay problem,so he said he would follow me to a local garage where its been for a couple of days where it has started and driven ok,????on my way to the garage the car wasnt driving as nicely as it normally does and sounded like the engine was pinking when i revved it quite hard up through the gears etc any suggestions would be great as we need our car back many thanks.
