After looking at the PDF attached to this thread I found that by removing the 25 amp fuse at position 12 I can stop the aux heater and retain the heating and cooling inside the car. Can anyone confirm that car is now safe to use like this ?. Thanks in advance.

Aim is to stop the smoke although still retain the climate control etc in the car, but of course I realise it will take longer to get up to temperature. If your sure the fuses are listed in the thread will try and take another look. Thanks Sorry forgot to add the hand book I have for the car is for the older version Galaxy so the fuse layout appears to be wrong. Otherwise would have just followed that.

Hi All, My Galaxy (2001 Ghia TDI) has grey smoke comming out of the aux heater exhaust. Last time this happened Ford replaced the glow plug and it was fine for a couple of years. It has now started again and the wife is concerned about all the smoke and wont use it. The car is booked in with a mechanic for a few weeks time. In the interim is it possible to safely disconnect the Aux heater to stop the smoke. I see fuses 2 , 12 and 19 mentioned but is it possible to pull any of these to stop the aux heater but leave everything else working ?. Sorry if this has already been answered, tried to go through all threads on this topic but there is so many.
