Changing Radiator Fan

Post by davepm13 » Wed Mar 10, 2010 8:58 am

Hi all,

My radiator fan's died. I've now picked up a replacement. Used but appears mint.

I had a quick look last night at what's required and was just wondering if someone could confirm that it is as it appears?

By my reckoning I need to undo the bolt that attaches the lower radiator to the bracket that attaches to front of engine. Then I should be able to swivel the lower radiator upwards and forwards so as to get to the 2 bolts that hold the fan in place on the back of the radiator. Then swap that for my replacement and connect up the wires. Am I correct in thinking that the single black wire attaches under the bolt at the top of the radiator and fan assembly (correct wording?)?

All help gladly received!!!

Many thanks,

Dave.

That all sounds correct to me. It's as straight forward as you've made it (for once!). :up:

Good luck! :grin:

Hi all,

Just an update. Sorted this out yesterday.

Geoff, you were right, there are 3 bolts. The top one's an absolute nightmare but got there!!!

Cheers for your help guys.
