sparky Paul Posted August 14, 2009 Report Posted August 14, 2009 Just out of curiosity... how do you enable/disable the service indicators? :unsure: The reason I ask is that our Galaxy has never shown these over the 6 years we have had it. It's never bothered me, the car has been serviced on the dot, but never seen any service ln01, ln02, etc.... Car had complete Ford service history when we got it, and was a very low mileage ex-motability car. Quote
bluenosebryan Posted August 14, 2009 Author Report Posted August 14, 2009 i dont know how to enable/disable but i had to do it twice as the first time i done it came up with OIL so i repeated procedure and it worked a treat but i was reading on another forum and sometimes you have to do the procedure 3 times depending on what service it needs Quote
sparky Paul Posted August 14, 2009 Report Posted August 14, 2009 I've never seen any service indicators, so there must be a way to disable them permanently. :unsure: Quote
big_kev Posted August 14, 2009 Report Posted August 14, 2009 I think you can do it via vagcom ( instrument cluster....coding ) as this option may be required in certain countries. Quote

The car had only been serviced by the supplying dealer, who confirmed the mileage and history six years ago. Perhaps it was an 'accident' at the time of manufacture, who knows?
