hi,got my first gt turbo last week and the anti perc fan does not work but i got loads of receipts with the car and it had a brand new anti perc fan fitted last year.do you think it will be the sensor on the heat shield thats causing this or is there any other problems you get with it??thanks

Short the 2 connection together on the heat sheild, Fan should run. If not check to see if the 10 amp fuse ( If fitted from the recall ) is ok that lives in the loom next to the perc fan. The unit is powered directly off the alternator so check wires there also.

Just out of curiosity, are the anti-perc fan and front foglight relays interchangable?
