#1: fan not working Author: m4tth3w, Location: sheffieldPosted: Fri Feb 03, 2012 10:09 am ---- I'm pretty sure my fan is dead as I never hear it and car goes into red when stood .nun traffic, pretty quick.
Any tips on what to check before I invest in a new one?

Mine had blown so checked the fan assembly by taking off the black upper grille between the headlamps to find the motor had seized solid!
I haven't renewed as yet as i have my engine in bits but there are various types.
Are you doing the job yourself?

#10: Re: fan not working Author: Daveb206, Location: BordonPosted: Fri Feb 03, 2012 3:53 pm ---- Get your self a workshop manual. It might plug in above the fan near the slam pannel.

Where do you think a 206 radiator cooling fan is going to be?
Its going to be attached to the radiator, try looking through the grill, you will find what your looking for.
#14: Re: fan not working Author: m4tth3w, Location: sheffieldPosted: Sat Feb 04, 2012 7:07 am ---- I did and I couldn't see it, upon further investigation the fan seems to be located in a roundish plastic moulding behind the bulk head.
#15: Re: fan not working Author: m4tth3w, Location: sheffieldPosted: Sat Feb 04, 2012 7:16 am ---- I seem to have two radiators?
A bigger one at front and a newer looking smaller one behind it,
Do gti's have oil cooler's or is it more likely that it just has a newer radiator bolted to the old one?
