My fans have all of a sudden completely stopped working. They were working at FCS as we forced them to come on for the rolling road. Several times in the past few weeks they havent kicked in and the engine has voerheated and the STOP light has come on.
All the sensors are plugged in so i guess the thing to check would be the plug (bottom passenger side?) and the relays? Any idea where the relays are located? D:
much love to anyone who can help!

Just bridge the pins, make sure you get a good connection though. Mine kept falling out as the wire I used was too manly

ok right myself and Mooey65 had a quick look a the fans tonight. The bottom green relay had a leg completely corroded! Fitted a new one but no change. We removed the brown coolant plug to turn the fans on and we could hear the relay but the fans still didnt come on. Any ideas? Loose/corroded bottom plug?

so this is a brown plug on an AC pipe on the drives side? or is it the brown one going into the engine?
