Hi all I have a s2 rs turbo 1989, After having my whole engine rebuilt( obviously everything entailed around it also) i have stumbled across a wiring issue, my rad fan plugs into a loom that falls where its needed however is the sensor on the thermostat housing the rad fanswitch? if so i have no loom for this? please help!! what colour are they? where is it? I have nothing outstanding to plug in, bar a circular yellow plug nere tghe bulk head which doesnt look right?

ignore yellow plug,
temp switch that triggers fan is on thermostat housing, under the big water pipe
the wiring for it is usually joined in the loom by the temperature sensor wire
it comes out of main loom behind the nearside headlamp, above the hooter/horn

Good morning, I have found the 2 said wires and tried bridging which did not kick the fan in, I have also change 1 x 20 amp and 1 x 25 amp fuses with the fan emblem with no joy? any ideas would be greatly appreciated

does the fan work ?
when you bridged the 2 wires , was 1 of them even live to start with
ignition need to be on ,

Also check the yellow relays are not missing or kaput.

Yes ignition was on, the fan does work when connected to a battery direct, still no joy

will check relays as i didnt realise there was one for the fan, to date ive only checked fuses many thanks
