This looks like the low speed not working and one fan running at high speed.
With the air conditioning turned on, even with a cold engine, both fans must spin at low speed, which is very quiet.

If low speed doesn’t work, it will go to high speed when too hot, and even only one fan spinning fast is loud enough to scare the pedestrians.
Ive exactly this problem on a 2001 Y reg Xantia AGAIN, no fans air con on, then suddenly one at TOP speed..

Need to get the front off again and check the relays wiring.. which is most liklely what it is...

Hi

I tested the fans today. As I turned the AC on both fans ran at slow speed, as the engine got warm they ran at high speed. When turning off the engine the fans will run for additional 20- 30 seconds and then stop. So I guess all is OK with may Xantia’s fans.
