does that fan draw air over the air con radiator? It could be on because the air con needs it to be on and not for engine cooling.

How did you turn the heater on David?

If you used the Auto button then it's perfectly normal for the engine cooling fan to run (at a constant low speed). This is because the air conditioning is automatically activated (in most cases) when Auto mode is chosen.

Use of the Econ button will give you heating and ventilation without the air conditioning or the engine fan running.

Does that answer your question?
