#1: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 6:28 am ---- Hi I have a 02 rev 206 140 could someone plz tell me where the fuses and relay are located for the fan and what number fuses as my fan does not work at all someone said they should be a slow speed fan and a fast speed fan but none are working or how do u wire it up to a switch or can I get it to run all the time any info would be much appreciated thanks lads
#2: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 7:12 am ---- If its like mine the fuse is under the bonnet. Relays are next to the fan behind a panel. The wiring is simple. No need to fit a switch.
#3: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 7:50 am ---- Ye I been in there and tested the power lead and the pen lit up that what I can't understand why it not working can the fan brake ?
#4: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 7:51 am ---- Do u know what number fuse it is plz
#5: Re: fuses for fan Author: DREWDEN, Location: huddersfieldPosted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:54 am ---- Look at the maxi fuses, engine fusebox, fuse NO1 20amp, if same as mine.
#6: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:55 am ---- Yep. Look for the maxi fuse...
#7: Re: fuses for fan Author: E5GDM, Location: EssexPosted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 2:23 pm ---- It's not a 2 speed fan, it's either on or off.
#8: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 2:54 pm ---- Where is the maxi fuse and what temperature should it come on at then because its killing me having the heating on in this weather when In traffic all the time need it sorting
#9: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 3:34 pm ---- Mine is on the side of the main fuse box under the bonnet. Is a multiplexed car the same? This topic has been covered 6 million times on this forum and I'll bet yours can be fixed the same way.
#10: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 5:06 pm ---- Ye multiplexed I could not find anything about it on here I did look before posting
#11: Re: fuses for fan Author: SinfulDesignCom, Location: Ashford, KentPosted: Sat Jun 14, 2014 7:08 pm ---- Having the same issue at the moment with mine - for what it is worth, you can check my current progress;
Take a good look at the relays and check to see they haven't shorted. PP2000 will give you a good indication of what is going on...

The 206 has a single cooling fan with 2 speed's.
Low speed operation uses the resistor built in to the fan circuit to slow the fan speed down.
High speed operation the resistor is bypassed to get the full cooling affect from the fan.
Its the same basic cooling fan control system PSA Peugeot / Citroen has used since the 1970's.

I stand corrected.
#14: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Thu Jun 19, 2014 7:42 am ---- I took the plug off the temp gauge sensor and fan never came on what does that mean is broke ? Info appreciated lads as I only DIY mechanic
#15: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 12:47 pm ---- How do u bypass the resistor to see if that is the problem and my air con is disconnected one of the pipes split in a accident I had lol
#16: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 1:08 pm ---- Best way to bypass the resistor is to get some wire with a couple of spade terminals attached and plug those into the connector instead of the resistor. Or just get a multimeter on the resistor and see if the resistance is sky high.
#17: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 1:10 pm ---- Send a direct feed to the battery first to see if the fan actually works. They tend to be reliable. Or if you understand how relays work you can trigger the relay with a -ve feed.
#18: Re: fuses for fan Author: SinfulDesignCom, Location: Ashford, KentPosted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 3:24 pm ---- If you are keeping the air con, then you need to fix this first. The twin speed/twin relay system relies on the ECU putting out the correct signal - so no air con and it will confuse everything.
All of my air con has been removed and I have replaced the whole fan circuit with separate parts now - had enough. Wanted the fan to cut it sooner anyway. Not good to have 100 deg+ on a track...
#19: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 4:06 pm ---- Bypass the resistor permanently and it will only run at high speed - no need for fancy solutions.
#20: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sat Jun 21, 2014 10:32 am ---- So spade terminal on a wire goin from resistor plug straight to battery plus and negative
#21: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jun 21, 2014 1:48 pm ---- No!
Wire in and out of the resistor connector! Simple as that.
#22: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Sun Jun 22, 2014 12:06 pm ---- Is that right ed or do u wire then to something else

Not Edward, but...
If your fan turns on the slow setting, it means there is a feed to the resistor, but the current to the fan has to go through the resistor, thus slowing the fan.
By putting a wire between the terminals on the resistor, you provide a path without resistance for the current, allowing the fan to run at full speed.
This is effectively the same as removing the resistor completely and tying the two wires going to it, together instead.
No need to run wires anywhere else!
#24: Re: fuses for fan Author: DREWDEN, Location: huddersfieldPosted: Mon Jun 23, 2014 5:01 am ---- If you are to bypass the resistor as mentioned, make sure you change the 20amp fuse to a stronger fuse, mine has a 50amp fuse, work done by an auto electrician.
#25: Re: fuses for fan Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Mon Jun 23, 2014 6:40 am ---- Might also want to beef up the wiring if running it bypassing the resistor permanently. It will need to match the high speed fan wiring.
#26: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:22 am ---- Ye but now i have took the plug off the temp sensor and the fan doesn't kick in does that mean even bypassing the resistor it will still not work. And is it fuse no1 maxi fuse that u have to change to 50 amp fuse if u bypass the resistor thanks lads because I have tested the live wires in the back of the fan and they have power goin to them so I thinking fan kaput ? What u guys thinking
#27: Re: fuses for fan Author: Deano, Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:25 am ---- If u get a fan from scrappy they should be a working resistor in there aswell just a chew fitting it all
