you have a two stage fan switch, and they fail. check to see if your switch is 3-wire or 2-wire. and replace it. if you have a 3-wire(two stage) you may want to convert it to 2-wire. you can get 2-wire switch anywhere and at cooler temp. check all electrical first. dannopsamorama.com Daniel Figueras-Ljung wrote in message <3552F37F.5C10B5Enopsamisped.se>... >I have a 9000 2,3l engine (no turbo) and is very happy with this car.
