Technical Fan not kicking in.

[Dtpmatt1]

Typical. Now it's 40°c in Portugal the Pandas fan has decided to stop working.
Ive checked the fuse and it's not blown but I can't for the life of me get the fan motor disconnected to wire it directly to the battery to see if the motor has blown.
I've lifted the yellow tab but not amount of poking with a screwdriver to find the legs holding it in is working.

How to do I get it off??

Sorry if it's a dumb ass question but its beat me in this heat!!

Lift the yellow tab up then push this part down

If it's not been off recently it's likely to be be hard
to pull apart

Before you take all that off.... There is a resistor in the shroud that rots. Bridge the connector and see if it works. If it does just get a replacement. Take a look at this, it may help
