OEM Part Number: FV41-9H307-AA (as quoted in catalogue listings — confirm via VIN) — aftermarket fuel pumps Bosch 0 580 203 264 / Pierburg 7.02550.61.0
| Fuel pumps / feed units (aftermarket) | Bosch 0 580 203 264 (in-tank fuel feed unit, fuel type not stated); Bosch 0 580 204 345 (in-tank fuel feed unit, fuel type not stated); Pierburg 7.02550.61.0 (bare in-tank pump, 3 bar, 12 V 7 A, 135 mm long, 1 connector, without sender); Magneti Marelli 313011313005 (bare pump, 3 bar / 100 l/h, 12 V, without sender); Ridex 1382F0030 (in-tank feed unit, petrol, 3 bar / 100 l/h, 4 pins, with sender); Ridex 1382F0078 (in-tank feed unit, diesel, 0.5 bar / 100 l/h, 4 pins, with sender); Ridex 458F0094 (diesel in-tank pump with swirl pot, 0.5 bar, 2 connectors); ERA 775047A (feed unit, 3 bar / 80 l/h, 4 pins) |
|---|---|
| Types & variants | Petrol EcoBoost cars take a 3 bar in-tank feed unit with sender (Ridex 1382F0030 is the only one labelled petrol); the 2.0 TDCi and EcoBlue diesels take a low-pressure 0.5 bar lift module with swirl pot (Ridex 1382F0078, Ridex 458F0094), the high-pressure pump being on the engine. The two Bosch units are complete in-tank feed units and the Pierburg and Magneti Marelli parts are bare pump motors only. |
| Genuine (OE) numbers quoted | FV41-9H307-AA (Fispa 721012, listed as genuine quality); pump no. F7AU9350DB (ERA 775080A); 1J0 919 051B (Kamoka 8410010) and 6N0.919.051K (Kamoka 8400033), both of which are Volkswagen-pattern numbers that do not belong to this Galaxy. |
| Fitment notes | Check petrol or diesel first: the diesel lift module runs at 0.5 bar and the petrol unit at 3 bar, so they are not interchangeable. A bare Pierburg or Magneti Marelli pump can be fitted into the original swirl-pot housing and keeps the existing fuel gauge sender, whereas the Ridex and Bosch modules replace the whole unit including the sender. |
A Genuine Test Worth Trying Before Replacing the Pump — Ford Galaxy Fuel Pump
Before assuming the Ford Galaxy's fuel pump itself has failed, it's worth trying a simple, genuinely useful check: with the ignition turned to "on" but the engine not yet started, you should hear a faint 2-3 second hum from the rear of the car as the pump primes the fuel system. If you hear nothing at all, check the fuel pump fuse first — commonly fuse F56 in the passenger cabin fuse box on many Ford models, though always confirm your specific car's fuse layout — before assuming the pump itself needs replacing. A blown fuse is a considerably cheaper fix, and it's a genuinely common cause that gets overlooked in favour of jumping straight to pump replacement.
Ford Galaxy Fuel Pump: A Part That Fails at the Worst Possible Moments
On the Ford Galaxy, few faults pick a worse moment to happen than this one, which has a habit of leaving drivers stranded mid-journey rather than failing safely at home. Catching the early signs gives you a genuine head start before that happens to you.

Ford Galaxy Fuel Pump: What It Does
On the Ford Galaxy, fuel reaches the engine at the pressure combustion needs thanks to the fuel pump, which draws it straight from the tank. It sits submerged inside the tank itself, and that positioning is a big part of why replacement takes more effort than the part's size would suggest.
Ford Galaxy Fuel Pump: Generations & Engines: Fuel Pump Type
| Mk3 (2006–2015), 2.0 TDCi diesel | Diesel: in-tank lift pump feeds a separate engine-mounted high-pressure injection pump (common rail) — never interchangeable with the petrol pump |
|---|---|
| Mk3, 2.0/2.5 petrol | Petrol: typically a single in-tank low-pressure pump; some later or higher-output variants may add a separate engine-mounted high-pressure pump for direct injection — confirm your exact engine |
| Mk4 (2015–2023), 1.5/2.0 EcoBoost petrol & 2.0 EcoBlue diesel | Spans both diesel (in-tank lift pump plus an engine-mounted high-pressure pump) and petrol (in-tank low-pressure pump, plus a separate high-pressure pump if direct-injection) variants — confirm your exact engine before ordering |
