I have a 02 1.1 206 which is running fine in general. But if I get stuck in traffic for anything over 30 minutes the temperature gauge rises almost to the red and the only way to cool it down is to turn the engine off when Im stopped.

Fan isn't working. You need to check the relays and resistors. Read the live data to check the ECU is trying to turn the fan on at 92oC (i think second stage cooling is)

If you need a new relay and resistor, I have one that I have just removed from a 206, and it was working when tested.

Also check the wiring to the relays. The relays can look fine but the wires to the relay terminals can be all corroded.

hello, im having roughly the same problem. my car is fine most of the time but the odd occassion it will reach at least 100°c then the fan kicks in. it cools it back down to 90°c then eventually rises again. ive looked at the main fan at the front and when im driving and the temperature is at about 80°c its stationary? is it supposed to be moving? its doing my nut in im always watching it!!! Sad

thanks
Lee

Sounds like your slow speed fan circuit isn't working and the fast speed fan circuit is the only one remaining which will cut in at the higher temp. Pretty common fault so need to check relay/ wiring/ slow speed resistor. It's all stuck out the front to air cool the resistor but that means it's open to all the weather so corrosion is a problem there

Your fan shouldn't be working at all temps, it works on slow speed as the first temp limit is reached, slower motor speed achieved through a resistor, and then on full speed at the higher limit
