2.3 Throttle Cable Galaxy Not Available?

[Tedtiler]

Hi folks recently got hold of a year 2000 rusty galaxy. Throttle cable is snapped. But I can’t find anywhere that sells them? Looks like ford unfortunately

Probably a dealer only part, only other options are a used one or a universal cable repair kit.

 

You should be able to find a good used one anywhere they are breaking a few Galaxys.

I got one from this website (I think!) when I needed one > http://www.allcarpartsfast.co.uk/ford/ford-1005884-cable-control/ They do however list it at two prices so it might be an idea to either email or phone them before you purchase to check.

 

You don't mention if its an auto or manual, or a mk1 or mk2 though, so that may not be the right number - Assuming as your in Belfast that its at least a RHD one, then your options are as follows

 

1005884 - MK1 2.3l RHD Manual Transmission (also for the mk2 upto March 2003)

1016860 - MK1 2.3l RHD Auto Transmission (also for the mk2  with AG4 Transmission up to March 2003)

 

After 2003 the part number changes, but that shouldn't be relevant to you. I know when i asked in the motor factors they looked at me like I was crazy asking for a throttle cable for a 1997 vehicle so its doubtful you will get any luck there. Second hand is an option though as they don't tend to go wrong.
