Two questions:-
Should the two cooling fans run all of the time or kick in when the car reaches a certain temp?
Will the signal from either the CHTS or water temp sensor cause my stalling problem if it gets too hot -ie switch off before causing any serious problems?
Think I may have made the dumbest basic error, thinking there was a problem with my chts, when actually it is doing the right thing and switching the engine off!
Thought my fans were not kicking in because it wasn't heating up enough before cutting out. Managed to get it running longer with a resistor in the chts circuit - didn't stall but still no fan kick in -so switched off. Radiator cold, top water pipe hot, bottom cold. Possibly a blockage or coolant temp sensor sticking (has been replaced in last year) or possibly water pump? Any thoughts?
