My new Ren9 turbo , problems already !!
Rad fan does not come on, i have now spotted that the sensor wires ( that go to the temp sensor on the rad ) have been disconnected .
The wire connector itself actually looked like it had been on fire ?!?
However the wires appeared to still be in okay condition, but even after i plugged them in, the fan did not come on.

I tried shorting out the sensor wire , the fan still did not start ?

Any ideas ?

No mate, i am going to do that tomorrow - coudlnt find the fusebox lol, nevermind i have the haynes manual now ;)

Thats one of my pet hates tho - electrics. I dont mind doing dirty work, but electrics?! bah !

I wonder why the wires had previously caught fire / melted?
