info of blower fan+rad fan

reet, only major problem on the golf is that the rad fan has stoped workng so when im sitting in allot of trafic the temp needle rokets, anyone know if this is a common thing?? or what i can look at to try and fix it, i know the moter aint seized as i spinns by hand eaisly, and it *useded* to work!!

now as the winter months are knicking in my car seems fog/condense up quite bady i think this is mainly due to the fact that my blower moter soendt work i dont think its the swich, has anoney got any tips?? oce again the fan spins so it aint seized, ive tryied wireing it with out the swich but still nothing, any tips???

If you join the switch wires the radiator fan should run even without the ignition on. Watch your fingers.

This is a good 'get you home' trick.

If it doesn't, there is something wrong with the wiring or the fans packed up.


Not sure about your blower fan problem.

Rad fan either:

Switch in Rad
Fan dead
Wiring faulty

Check fan as above - replace switch - ?5ish from GSF

Blower:

Fuse
Switch
Wiring
Motor brushes

Check for 12v at the switch and motor with switch on full
Test motor with supply direct from battery
I sell used switches and motors if needed.

had this problem on the rad fan. remove the plug from fanswitch short the terminals out on the fanswitch- works ok? remove the plug fanswitch and connect a simple bulb to the terminals and put it in boiling water (Kettle) if the light dont come on its Kaputt! Replace, Reconnect, GO!
