I think I have a problem with all 3, when I had my aircon regassed I was told that it was cooling down ok but pressure was building up in the aircon system and a fan should kick in and cool it down. The temp from the vents would also start rising at this point. I have never seen any of the 3 fans on!

ok if you have the aircon/climate on, the two fans at the front of the rad should be running all the time
.....unless its blooming cold where you are at the mo and the aircon might not be switching on..below about 5/6C...the fan nearest the engine should cut in and out to keep the engine cool

I may be wrong, thought only one fan came on with AC

From what i have discovered their are 2 cooling fans for the v6 for the air con....only the one for 4 pots.....and only one for the engine cooling

I thought it was 1 for aircon, and 2 for rad cooling. As said, could be wrong, too pissed to get wiring diagrams out tonight  [smiley=beer.gif]

Sounds right to me but i am doubting mine are working properly.

I notice alot of the time when my AC is on the fan bolted to the rad comes on not sure of the one on the front of the condensor. (shall have to check to confirm)

Car usual temp sits at around 90 and i have only seen it go to 95 a couple of times.

It was worse before I replaced the rad as It used  to go upto 97+ but then the fans would kick in. (Not heard the fans kick in, in a while)

Apologies for the hijack

Still think all mine are dead - drove half an hour this evening with aircon on set to 19º (It was a cold journey home!) after I'd parked I opened the bonnet with the engine and aircon still on and as far as I could tell none of the fans were on. It was hard to tell for the one behind the radiator in the dark! Keep meaning to do the tests mentioned in previous posts but it's always too dark after work!
