hi can any one give me some advice my 2002 tdi radiator cooling fan running all the time does not over heat ar ony problems air con off is this ok or is there a problem just got the car otherwise it runs great cheers mike

Most likely the fan switch is faulty, either gets stuck on or in your case stuck off

This happened on my old 51 plate focus.
Disconnect signal wire for air con from behind heater fan switch.
This will disable auto switch-on of air con when demisting at a fast speed but air con will still operate with air con switch.

is it easy to get into the back of the switch thanks mike

Have you checked the coolant level, because my Focus' fan kept coming on with no irregular temperature gauge, but the I checked the coolant level and it was low. I've just had the Thermostat Housing replaced, as this is where the leak was.
Just an idea?
