  • 2003 Bmw E46 Air con Cooling Fan Fault Fixed.
    A broken wire on the air con cooling fan control unit stopping the air con system from working but allowing the cooling fan to work flat out when vehicle sat in traffic for a prolonged amount of time.

    I am surprised, i went and did the same on my e46 2003, to my surprise the + connector had corroded, cleaned it and soldered a new cable and it did work, my ac is finally working!
    Thanks Alan.

    I'm definitely going to check this out. My wife's car is having the same issue. I definitely hope I don't have to replace the whole fan unit. They're almost $500!
    Thanks for sharing!

    As always great job mate! Speaking about Mondeos. Maybe you can show how to fix famous purple wire from the fan to ECU in Mk4? My AC stopped working suddenly and have this code „fan failure”. This wire is fanous to just desintegrate in time and loose connection and in result not giving compressor a signal to do the bloody job!

    2005 BMW 330i E46 runs hot on idle only .. AC on .. electric fan comes on full speed only .. i changed fan coolant switch (Temp switch) no change .. disconnected the AUC (no change) .. changed fan clutch (no change) .. the electric fan works full speed only .. inside temp gauge goes to 3/4 way up.. if you rev engine to 2000 RPM .. car cools back down and AC comes back cold .. no white cloud out the tail pipe.. no milky oil... can the electric fan running be running too fast ? there are no leaks.. pressure tested good.. please advise.

  • @bobbymathiwathanan1832

    Hi Allan, I have the same issue, I tried (without removing the fan) supplying 12v to the brown and blue wires, the fan spins. Do you know what that thin black wire is for?

  • @MrZANDERMCKENZIE
    @MrZANDERMCKENZIE Před 3 lety

    Hi. My aircon blows hot air but no cold, i got the gas topped up a little bit & still no cold air. My radiator fan sometimes stays on even when the car is turned off and doesn't go off unless i disconnect the wiring. Do you know what is wrong?.

      If your ac is running, your fan should automatically turn on

    The Aux fan should start running immediately after turning on AC?

  • @jtaylor4027

    Will someone PLEASE show which direction the fan is supposed to turn when standing facing it! Does it push air through or pull air out?

      It blows towards the engine.

    • @samalfakir5463
      @samalfakir5463 Před 2 lety

      if it is on the front of the radiator then it's a push fan.. it pushes in.. if it is on the engine side of the radiator, then it's a pull fan.. it pulls air towards engine
