Hello all. I've been for a run today and when I parked up and took the key out, the nearside cooling fan kept running. I waited about 10 minutes but the fan just kept running. Surely this isn't right. It has never happened before. It will probably drain the battery eventually so I disconnected the fan. Any ideas what's going on? Maybe the thermostat has had it.

As above, both fans are relay controlled, but the ECU switches them against the temperature from the sensor in the block.........nothing whatsoever to do with the Thermostat.

If you have the software to check with a laptop, you can see what the ECU is doing with Fan 1 & Fan 2?

It does sound more like the relay is stuck on? Look at your handbook - relays 51 & 23 on panel above your legs under the dash drivers side? Swop them and see if the other fan comes on?

If all of that does not inspire you to do some DIY, I suggest you take to to your local TVR Indi?

HTH's ?
