Hi all I have a 1997 Ford galaxy Ghia and I'm having problems starting it parked it up in the drive came out turned the key all the lights and gauges went mad lots of clicking noises from behind dash but engine didn't turn. checked battery thats fine (well it started the wife,s car ok) so I thought ok lets look at the starter motor manage to get the starter out, after taking every thing off the car except the spare wheel it seemed, to get access to the top bolt ! laid the starter on garage floor connected jump leads to it and connected solenoid and away she went no probs replaced it back into car turn the key didn't work SO connected jump lead to starter motor chassis and to battery ( - ) to check earthing still no joy connected cable to solenoid and touch to battery ( + ) no joy connected jump lead to ( + ) and to screw drive and then on to main wire into starter motor no joy ( you may notice by this time I'm losing the will to live well it is 2.30 in the morning and going to work time is getting TOO close ) any ideas guys B)
