IIRC Its a bumper off job.. If your looking at the fan housing from the front its the bottom left cover. (You will knwo what I am on about when your looking at it.. |

not completely sure will look later but i would guess that its the smaller one being a pretty low spec 1.1?

Yeh, you will probs have smaller one
I dont quite know tbh then mate, check the fuses, see if the fan is connected
Find the fuse that operates the fan, put i live down the one that goes to the fan, does it turn on?
If not, its the fan/wire to fan
If it does, fuse or sensor

1. My LED rear lights have gone mental, the passenger side is fine but the drivers side does strange things; sidelights and braking are fine, that works normal but then the problems start. When i indicate/put hazards on the amber light flashes very dim and the main red led part also starts to flash! (don't understand that )... the reversing light is very dim compared to the passenger side... i've tried unplugging them and making sure they are all connected properly... i will try bulbs later but doesn't seem like its a bulb... any ideas?
Earthing problem, or a loose connector
2. My electric fan won't kick in... i know this has been asked before but it's annoying me now so would like some advice lol; had the sensor tested and that is fine apparently (well it changes the temperature on the gauge at least), the fan itself is not seized either. Could it be a fuse/relay? if so could someone tell me where i would find them (51' preplexed 1.1) because i cant understand most fuse/wiring diagrams
If you have AC, turn that on to see if it works. If not, then it more than likely will be the relay or a corroded wire.
Thanks, Jord |

IIRC its a big one on the wall closest to you, not wing or battery side, or strut side
But headlight side, follow the wire to see if im correct
If i am, give it a live from battery, does it work?
