Hi All,
Many thanks for all the above advice, it's very informative.
The fan cycles on and off on demist and air con calls.
I didn't realise this was an issue so didn't mention it.
I assumed a 3 speed fan because there is no visible resistor, however, I have recently seen a picture comparing 2 and 3 speed fans.
My fan does have the moulding with 2 screw holes at around 2 o'clock where a resistor could fit, the picture I've seen of a 3 speed fan doesn't have these holes.
So it may be a 2 speed with the resistor either missing or mounted elsewhere.
There does not appear to be any sign of coolant loss from the V.
I think that covers all the above questions.
Soooooo.....
I guess that means a couple of things.
I may have a dodgy sensor in the V (although if that was the case, does that mean I would not get an accurate temperature from the ECM?).
I may have a dodgy, or missing resistor, or a dodgy fan?
Should I change the sensor?
And/or
Replace the resistor (assuming I find a 2 speed fan when the bumpers off?)
And/or
Replace the whole fan assembly.
Could I have everyone's views on which of the above, and in which order?
