Which fan comes on first

[anonymous-user]

Waiting for the fans to cut in after a run to do an oil check and the nearside fan came on. In my mind I had only ever seen the offside on ?

Were they set in a fixed order, wondering if my first fan has a fault ?

Thanks

I think thats what mine was doing so maybee fan 1 not working .
Any ideas anyone

Mine was the opposite, nearside first and off side second. Changed to the Decat chip and now they both come on. If you unplug the temp sensor then they should both come on. If they don't most likely to be the connectors.

This happened on my SP6 Cerb, look down at the bottom of the radiator and you will see 2 white plugs pull them apart and clean the connections in side so they make better contact. Only takes a few minutes. But as mentioned above pull the temp sensor and both fans should come on (remove the air box for access) if only one comes on then check the connections next, then fuses.

Thanks all.
Checked fuses, then checked white connectors and one was farly corroded. Cleaned up and re attached. Took off temp sender for ECU startd up and both ran fine.
If I can get a run today I will see if it is back to normal.

Thanks
