tdf110 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I have this intermittant problem where the cooling fan is on when you wouldn't think it needed to be. You don't really notice it when you are driving, but when you stop and turn the engine off, the fan keeps running for about 5 seconds. This doesn't happen all the time. The system is topped up, and the temp gauge stays at normal when driving. Any ideas what the problem may be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Could be the engine management's coolant sensor (near but not the same as the one for the gauge), if this is dodgy the fan will run all the time. Could be a loose/dirty connection, new sensors are around a tenner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
