Afternoon folks
I know some of you are reading thinkin that it been cover loads of time but......
The fan works when the ac comes on
I had the car in for its cambelt the other week and had the mechanic there look at the fan, he 'bridged' something and the fan came on!!
He said the resistors were fine too!!
He suggested that ot may have something to do with the ecu??
Also when the car gets upto temperature to the point where the fan should kick in the revs search for a second then go back to normal!! Its only ever died once or twice from this! It only does it as the fam should kick in!!
Is the mechanic talkin wet??? Could this search of revs be the fan trying to kick in??
Cheers
Dave

Might just be the relay (or wiring) that controls the high speed fan. Low speed is controlled by the other relay.

The fan has a couple of rellays controlling it at the front behind the grill in a mini-sealed compartment.
Try turning the fan by hand, it might be seized and thus only turning at high speed with difficulty.
You can stick a screw driver through the grill (ignition off!) and see how easily the fan blades turn.
Otherwise could well be rellay related because the wiring rots from all the damp/water it is exposed-to at that place.
