21200 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Is this an easy job? I've had it diagnosed. Basically the fan is completely dead so I need to fit a new one. I've done some messing before like break lads and disks. So I was wondering how hard this job is? Is it a matter of just removing bolts to release the fan and removing the plug and putting the new one in? Or is there more to this than meets the eye?

21200 Posted August 23, 2013 Author Share Posted August 23, 2013 I should say, all fuses have been checked, and the guy from the AA tried to link a charge direct to the fan to make it spin and it failed to work. To be fair I don't think I've ever heard the fan working for a very long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Changing is relatively easy, unplug, remove, fit new, replug, however its getting access to it that will probe to be tricky. Have you got a Haynes manual? I recommend you invest in one if you havent already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21200 Posted August 23, 2013 Author Share Posted August 23, 2013 I don't, and I haven't. But I agree you're right, as I've spent many house looking for things I didn't need and missing things I do. Well I shall try and find a fan, and attempt this. I always have a tool issue but I guess the book explains what I need. Now to figure what MK my car is. Thanks again.

jeebowhite Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 if its the new shape with a green instrument cluster, then its MK2, if its the new shape with an orange cluster then its MK2.5, if its the latest shape its MK3 Post a picture and we will confirm!
