Clio 1.9D. Year 2000. Cooling fan not working.

Unread post by harvestmouse »

Hello All

The radiator cooling fan on my Clio has stopped coming on when the engine gets hot.

Have checked the fuse in the panel inside the car, but don't know if a fuse or relay in the engine bay fusebox has blown.

Can photograph this fusebox if necessary.

The fan works if the + is connected directly to the battery.

If the thermo switch on the radiator is bypassed, with the ignition on, this does not cause the fan to work.

Any advice? Thanks in advance.

The site is definitely live, but there are fewer Renault knowledgeable members than PSA members.

Sadly the Renault section isn't as well populated by knowledgeable helpers. There may be no-one who actually knows.

Hopefully this could help you :-D

No first hand knowledge on it, but you may find this post on another forum ( renaultforums.co.uk ) helpful. I think it has a decent chance of a solution to the questions you have raised.
