Mods: 3.8L TB upgrade. MINI R53 models utilize an electronic cooling fan integrated into the cooling fan shroud. Problems going on with my fans, I suspect maybe related to the 85/95 thermo sensors in the radiator. I'd like to fix it right, of course, but: 1. Next connect the jumper between M2 30 and V2, the passenger fan … Estimated Ship Date: 12/4/2020 if ordered today. If it struggles to turn, suspect both the fan and control module are cooked, like it was with mine when the fan developed so much friction from the motor going out that it cooked the control module. Shop online or call 888-844-3393. Here is one from ebay from $22, Blue and back to black jump togather on the back of the resistor I signed in to help yah so I hope all goes well goodluck, That is the blue and black wire to black wire use a paper clip if you need to it want melt and want short out cause its stiff. I have no blower at any speed 01 T&C Ltd with ATC. One solution proposed on a British forum is the installation of a high power resistor to bypass the fan's defective internal resistor. hi negative (goes to ground on M/T, switched on/off to ground by the 5th radiator fan relay LO2 on A/T) = blue/green So, I'd wire the 12v wires for both the high and low fan circuits together. I got things working by jumping out the relays but I can not get 12 volts to the fans. I should be able to bypass the resistor and get 12 Volts. If your fan only runs at high speed when it is on it is probably the resistor that has failed. You could connect the wire from the t-stat switch to the green wire on the radiator switch and the radiator switch will activate both high and low relays giving you a high only outcome. The reason its in the fan shroud is for cooling because it gets pretty hot. $33.95. Bypass ECU :: Radiator Fan Control Switch. You may notice that the cooling fans only operate at one speed, when they used to operate on two or more. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. Join now! The blowers in a 4th gen are a RARE think to find at a pull-a-part place. 19. I have aftermarket fans with no resister box and the radiator fan switch turns on the low side. Replaced it and new one blew when fan started to run. Rad fan resistor fix I simply refused to pay £67 per side to solve the issue so decided to find an alternative way to fix them. There are some articles on VW forums discussing this design flaw. Where is the temperature sensor located? Thread starter pradoartz; Start date Oct 17, ... in series with the appropriate fixed resistor, could be used as a "voltage divider" to provide a signal to a simple comparator (like an LM111). Well, it might be ok then, but if I remove 10 bolts, I will later install 10 bolts, not matter what. Check for voltage at the radiator fan connector and then check the resistance across the resistor. I know, checked 14 vans until I found one. Failure of this unit will typically cause the radiator fan not to work at low speed. There is a resistor in the wiring and attached to the shroud that will control the speed of the fan. ChryslerMinivan.net is the best forum for Chrysler Town and Country owners to discuss mileage, price, problems, towing and more. Just the lo setting- 6 Volts. I have a broken cooling fan resistor and I can't seem to find a replacement number. The first part of the installation is to install the electric fan to your radiator, and remove the mechanical fan. Crown Automotive 68247207AA - Crown AutomotiveRadiator Fan Resistors. Get it as soon as Tue, Dec 8. If that's the case, do the fan first and check with your current module. The electric cooling fan system uses the following core components: Two electric cooling fan motor assemlies Fan motor 1 (located on the driver side of the radiator). ouch. Many of us have done the same and its not very hard. Engine Cooling Fan Resistor Car Engine Cooling Radiator Fan Motor Resistor for Mini Cooper R50 R52 R53 2003-2008 17117541092R. If your fan only runs at high speed when it is on it is probably the resistor that has failed. Fan motor 2 (located on the passenger side of the radiator). Next connect the jumper between M1 30 and V1, the drivers fan should run at low speed. 7. I am looking for some details on an alternative radiator fan resistor to the expensive OEM version. Not sure, but I believe when a blower resistor fails, you still have the high speed. Cooling Fan Resistor Kit by Dorman®. Check here for special coupons and promotions. HOWTO: Install a Cooling Fan Bypass Switch Written by Wild Weasel. Ditto what Mr. Stockman says. Or maybe pull one from junkyard if possible for like $10 maybe? Estimated Ship Date: 12/4/2020 if ordered today. The cooling fan resistor is meant to send power to the fans in steps, so that the fans may operate at different speeds. 4.0 out of 5 stars 2. Order Cooling Fan Resistor for your vehicle and pick it up in store—make your purchase, find a store near you, and get directions. If I ever need to buy that thing, I will not buy it if broken (sheared?). Warm idle after radiator fan kicked in: 10.35 - 10.55 volts Acceleration and boost: ~10.5 volts After taking the measurements above, the voltage at the battery during warm idle was 13.72 volts, which is normal for a properly functioning alternator.
