headgasket?
hi was wondering if anyone could help me out i have recently bought a punto GT when the car is running tempature is fine but when the car is ticking over it starts to over heat, would this be my fan control swith is possibly knackered or any ideas.
headgasket?
so is the fan not kicking in then ?
am pretty sure its not the headgasket, done all the checks was first thing a looked for, found out tonight that the fan wire is bridged and even when the ignition is off the fan continues to run, then i have started to take the fan fuse out after stopping the car. now having the fan running constant when driving car is always cool, so all is good there wich throw me to it being the fan control switch ( also i have been told it has got a 1.6 punto sport radiator fitted ) also looking to buy a GT 1997 radiator
Could be thermostat or water pump also.
still getting hot air through the heating also if i leave fan running constant when wires r bridged car stays nice and cool
Does the rad fan come on on its own at all? If it doesn't then it could be the rad fan switch
nope radiator doesnt come on
Either a bad connection to the red fan switch or you need a new switch
