Hi I have a 2018 Mk4 focus ST Line.

Should the radiator fan run continuously.  It turns on 20-30 second after the engine is started and turns off when the auto stop/start kicks in or engine is turned off

 

is this normal if not anyone know how to stop it

    I’ve not noticed the 20 seconds delay coming on but definitely turns off when the S/S kicks in.

    hello sorry for the writing I am French, have you solved your problem? I have exactly the same vehicle in ecoblue 150, and I have the same problem as you, Ford wanted to change the active grille for me, supposedly blocking it, but it works perfectly
