However testing it while your finger is in the housing isn't a good idea. Just ask Ed

You've more likely only 'fried' the fan relay, find the fusebox and unplug the relays one by one until the fan stops, the relay that you unplug and causes the fan to stop is the one that needs renewing.
Doubt it. The relay is controlled by the ECU.
#35: Re: How much damage have I done? Author: Sheedy1592, Location: NewportPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 7:37 am ---- i have tested all relays and left it over night to no avail, have i fried the ECU and what cost am i looking at?
#36: Re: How much damage have I done? Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 8:12 am ---- someone friend their ECU n BSI by pulling fuzes when the car was live the other day on here, i think it was £1500 for both. that was plexed tho, and as yours is pre-plexed it might be less hopefully?
could send it off to get tested and fixed? or could get a replacement that comes with keys etc?
probs aint gunna be cheap tho man

I often worry about your obsession with forklifts.
Do you have one at home as well?

Ordinarily yes, but his interior light is not working either and what are the
chances of the fan relay mechanicaly failing at the same time as this whole incident.
If the relay coil was burned it would fail open contacts not closed.
ECU/BSI are powered-up even with the keys out I think.
Hope you're right though, for his pockets' sake.

Didn't read the whole thread tbh, just read the bit about the fan been constantly on.
I've blown a relay before where its given power out constantly.
Should just get the car plugged in and see what comes up, saves a lot of f*****g about

No but we have saved one from the scrap heap last year to use as a workshop runaround, its a long walk to the vending machine / canteen / toilet / other end of the warehouse
Very few I can punch at the moment as 99% of them are still under warranty

Resistance is a property of the circuit and will have stayed the same, therefore if voltage went up so did current.
Thanks for the Electricity lesson, i spent four years learning,
Its was from a charger so the Ampage will have been small and not how your saying
Dumbass

Sort of, the other engineer is getting on ( meant to be retiring in less then a year ) & had replacement joints fitted in a hip & knee, he finds it a struggle to walk any distance so its easier for him to just use the camel.
It looks pretty smart for a 17 year old forklift as we done it up a bit & painted it
