Tommo Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 Hi, Any solutions folks Got a 1.9 tdi galaxy R REG WITH 196,000 on the clock. The blower has just recently syarted cutting out after running for a few minutes. If I turn it off for a while it will come back on, but will only run for a short while before cutting out again. Would be grateful for any possible solutions.Would also be grateful if anyone knows where I can get a new spare wheel winch at a reasonable price. Many Thanks Quote

Many Thanks Maybe a loose connection at the blower, spare wheel winch can be bought pretty reasonably from ebay, look out for sellers who are breaking Galaxy's. Quote

Blower bearings will have become tight - its almost impossible to oil them. There seems to be an overload cutout which permits short time working for a while as the bearing tightens up over time. Replacement of the unit is really easy - get a motor from ebay. Mk1 and Mk2 are ident. Make sure sender packs the fan carefully. The moulded on plastic impeller is brittle and easily trashed in the post Quote
