Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / August 20061997 405 LX Diesel
Hello people, its been a while since my last visit, any suggestions why the electric cooling fans on my 405 won't switch off, , , , I had to pull the fuse, it all started when the coolant light came on, the coolant level was correct, (with a cold engine), started the engine, coolant light went out after 5 mins,switched off the engine before it was warm, cooling fans came on and stayed on ,, any help appreciated Fitzy >Hello people, >its been a while since my last visit, [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >any help appreciated >Fitzy 1997 405???

But you never know! If you disconnect it with the fans running, they should stop. Then reconnect and hopefully they will stay stopped. It's located under the N/S headlight, not easy to get to, and you may need to remove the light unit. Otherwise as Matt said, check the relays, and senders on the fuel filter base. >>>>>>Hello people, >>>>>>its been a while since my last visit, [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > Otherwise as Matt said, check the relays, and senders on the fuel > filter base.

Where are the relays? If I stand in front of the car, there are three round connectors (?) on the right (N/S) a few inches behind the headlight. Are these the things? Tim |
