Hi!
The radiator fan on my wife's Panda 1.2 2014 seems to spin slowly when it's spinning, and only kicks in when it's really hot. The fan itself is free and not seized - I had that on an old Punto she had before!
I suspect it's the fan switch which needs replacing, as the car had a tell tale fresh pink stain/wet under the thermostat housing, I've replaced this, which included a new temp sender, but it's not sorted the lazy fan.
When I search the internet it throws up a normal looking brass 17mm switch body, different to the one on the thermostat, but looking at the radiator, in the top corner, opposite to the fill tube, there a green plastic unit on the fan shield, is that the fan switch, I can't see this as a spare part for sale?
Thanks in advance.
