Did they find the reason for the constantly running fan Bob?

The relay next to the fan was knackered so they fitted a new one.

A relay next to the fan? The four and six cylinder engines don't have that arrangement, perhaps the V8 is different. Can I ask if your fan is standard MGR or aftermarket?

The relay sits within the fan cowling unit. It’s the same relay that is found in the V6’s. The fan as far as I know is a standard MG part.

Nice one Bob, hopefully you can have many months of trouble free motoring without depleting your wallet.

Rev,

No, let Dawn keep your money safe. You are going to need it. No doubt more building work to be done.

But many thanks for the offer.
