They normally don’t work on the cars that I buy! Every time it has been the pcb that has been the issue.

French mike has sorted all of them for me.

My fbh is duff, it has all the working parts in good order but apparently they dont talk to each other. They all work quite happily when tested seperately

mine has stopped working. will test to see if fuel pump works and is being asked to send fuel. fan works so I guess water pump or pcb but it was only repaired a few weeks ago. If I get this pcb tested i'll get the one from the scrap yard tested at the same time.

why are the pcb's so prone to failure?

If I just supply 12v to the fan and water pump and they work I assume I can rule these out or could they still be faulty?

if you don't have one, then it is incorrect to say "mine has never failed"
