Hi all,

1997 Cinq sporting

thermostat seems to be going higher than the normal 90 degrees, when the cooling fan normally cuts in. I haven't noticed the fan cutting in lately. Is it likely to be something simple like the fuse?

Help appreciated please, its dark when my husband gets home from work to look at at so if its likely to be the fuse, I can sort that out myself!

Thanx

Check the fuse, if not then get your husband (or yourself) to wire the fan directly to the battery to check if its workin if it is and the fuse is ok then it will probably be your thermostat stuck closed

Remove the connector that plugs onto the temperature sender.

In the words of rallycinq "place a paper clip in the connector. If it glows red and the fan doesn't turn you need a new fan" Sure I've seen him post that at least 10x lol.

Also try turning the blades of the fan by hand. WHEN ITS TURNED OFF, and nice and COLD.

There is only one fuse, and its a massive maxi fuse. Prob located behind you car battery (thats where it is on on the sei anyway)
