Interesting, the Tecsol suppliers are local to me, so I will pop in to pick up a can.
I'm sure I've seen it, but can't now find, at what temp the rad fans should switch on? I ran it up to about 98 this AM and they did not come on.

Both front fans (but not the i/c fan?) work with the AC on, so electrically are OK. I have no paper clip codes, so does this suggest that the engine coolant temp sensor is serviceable? If so, at what temp should the fans come on?

Electric cooling fans should be on low speed at about 96/92 (prefacelift/facelift) and on high speed at about 98/95 (pre/facelift).

Mine is MFL. They did not come on above that this morning, so I guess the sensor may be Donald, despite no codes. Is it the one above the drain cock?

From memory, the low speed sensor is the top one on a TD (just under top ran hose).

Easy test, short it with a paperclip, low speed fans will come on (even with ign on, so mind fingers!)

Also, once I have sorted the fans, I need to check the coolant sensor that supplies the ECU. Can you remember where this one is Jaime?

In head, under large intake/plenum

There are 2, the 1 pin one is for gauge, 2 pin one for ecu
