- 2002 MK5 1.4 zetec
This is baffling me and I would like some assistance, if possible, please.
I have a 2002 Mk5 ford fiesta 1.4 petrol.
My cooling fan won't kick in even if I leave the car running for an hour, the catch is, the engine doesn't show its overheating on the temperature gauge, but surely it should after that amount of time, I know it works because it went all the way up when I lost all the coolant the other day through a faulty after market expansion tank cap. I also know the fan works because when I switch the heater on the fan works. I have changed the engine cooling sensor and both the relays under the bonnet, not to say that they are faulty but I doubt it, as it was like this when I bought the car a few years ago .I have also checked the fuses under the glove box which are all good. The only thing I haven't changed is the thermostat, could that be what's causing this?
