Cooling Fan

Hi, The engine cooling fan on my MK1 1.8 Focus comes on under normal driving conditions even after a cold start . The temp gauge is in the middle and doesn't rise in the red. I've read on here about the temp sensor and it's an easy job and having the air source on windscreen and feet?? Any help much appreciated!

    What is it you need help with? Are you saying the radiator fan is on as soon as you start the engine?

    Sounds good to me.

    Can you re word this as I don't understand what you are asking, and guessing from the lack of responses other people may not understand either.

    I had a long day so my fingers weren't communicating with my brain hence the post not making much sense! Sorry!

    I have since been informed that the ac is switched on when the air flow is switched to windscreen, Regarding the sensor issue I was just wondering if it was that at fault and how you replace it.

    Thanks anyway.
