Cooling Fan (not working) 2.0v6 Manual
 

Hi People im a a new member please be gentle. My Rover 75 started to over heat smoke from the bonnet, I noticed the radiator cooling fan not working, Temp in the car was showing normal. please help no idea where to start.

Assuming the smoke was an acute problem and none of the breather pipes are broken here's what I think. I'd guess this is a Mark 1 model with 50K or more on the clock. The fan motor has probably failed due to wear in the brushes/commutator. The smoke was likely to be its death throes.
The usual solution is a new fan motor (expensive), or a Kenlowe replacement fan system (less expensive). You could try the rewiring dodge to get the fan going on two speeds instead of three, but I suspect the motor's beyond recovery frankly.

Thanks mate any idea where i can get a kenlowe fan system?

Try: http://www.kenlowe.co.uk/
I understand Rimmers or Xpart were selling them when the OEMs were in short supply.
