rite i give everything a check, including all the fuses and they seemed fine, i checked the relays too to see if any of the pins where blackened. I also pulled the 2 pin connector plug off and the fan didnt kick in so i put a link across it and the temp gauge showed max temp and the fan didnt kick in either. I think the only thing left is to test the fan directly from the battery and see if it works. Are the fans themselves interchangable with mine say between a 2.0 or 1.8 or are the fans different for the different engine sizes?
I was looking around the aircon aswell and when i moved the pipe a little bit i heard a bit of gas come out so i think on the air con side ive got a leak on 1 of the joints. Its the pipe right at the back of the engine where its held on by a bracket
