Hi all


After some advise, I have removed my cruise control pump today to see if there was water in  it and yep there was, what I'd like to know has anybody opened one up to find it in this state as shown in my photo, and did it Eva work again?

Cheers for any advise

OK thank you lol not what I wanted to hear, I knew they filled with water but I didn't how much corrosion to expect.
Is it possible to clean it up?
Only I just looked on eBay only to find not one pump for sale..

Thank you

You might be best to search for "Galaxy 2.3 breaking" and then ask the sellers a question to see if they have one - I'd hazard a guess that a fair few are scrapped without them having knowledge its even there!

If you take it apart and clean it all up you might find some life in it but from the state I suspect the pump itself will be too badly corroded internally. Worth a try though :)
