2.0ltr 16v fan problem!!

Recommended Posts

Hi all got a problem with my fan on me 2ltr 16v rado. Noticed when I was driving about other night that the engine temp was slowly creeping up to bout 100 and higher! Didn't think this was right so lifted the bonet to discover the fan hadnt kicked in! So I removed the cable from the rad thermoswitch and crossed a piece of wire between the plug terminals n hey presto the fan started working!

 

Then last night went to cross a piece of wire between the terminals to get the fan to work again and nothing! All I'm getting now is a click comming from the fan relay everytime I make the connection!

 

Any ideas???

 

 

Cheers Graeme

Might have to replace the fan relay then I guess... :( Also worth replacing the rad fan temperature switch the radiator - but I can't stress enough that you seek out a new, genuine VW item to replace it!
