Hi all,

Long story short, my 2010 galaxy start to act weird. In the morning dropped in couple of fault codes , without any additional symptoms. (B0000; P0000p; p0006, p0007, c0700, p0017, p223b etc)

As many time erased gave me new ones. I turned up the garage before noon , they put onto snap on,  nothing was  read out apart the break lights bulb. Later on the dash became as a Christmas tree, all the lights including the EML came in, turned up again the nearest garage to be tested again, I got a proper booklet of fault codes. Most of them was about lost communication with the modules( try to attach the pictures below). They told me to drive it over the weekend and get back to them on Monday to compare the today test with a new one. They checked the ground what is connected to the gearbox is solid and nice, the battery resting voltage is 12.2v the charging is 14.2-14.4. I hope there is someone over here who had issue like this, or can point me to a good direction what to be done to sort the issue. Apart of it the engine is running smooth. 

Many thanks

    This sounds exactly like the infamous Instrument Cluster dry solder joint problem. A 2010 model is certainly the right age.

    Perhaps @rd457 would have an idea.

    Is it this kind? This does suffer from the common cracked connector solder joint issue.
