Wappygixer Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I've had issues with my aircon only working when I was moving but once I had stopped it would then blow out very hot air. After a bit of research I found out the fan controller had failed and the fan was no longer coming on as it should when the aircon was switched on. I have a 2.0 TDCI on a 55 plate. This is the model where Ford changed the fan controller and fan. I searched high and low to find the correct fan but failed. Ford only wanted £400 for a new unit. I then started looking at replacements from other models and found a guy who had used a fan from an earlier Mondeo. I picked the fan up today and I've fitted the whole unit with the fan fascia and it all works a treat. The wiring connector is different but the wiring colours are the same, black, brown and blue ECU wires. I was lucky in the the breakers had cut off the loom side connector so all I had to do was solder the wires in. My aircon now works when stationary, it's just a shame the heat wave has now finished. I hope others will find this of use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOCA Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Do you mean radiator fan or heater fan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 He means the radiator fan. There's only a single fan for both the radiator and aircon on that model. Mine died just the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wappygixer Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 Hi, Yes I meant the radiator fan. The standard 56 onwards model has removable fan control unit. These fail and are not available to but on there own from Ford. I found the older model bolts right on with just the need to change the electrical plug. I used the whole fan assembly and cowl.
