its fookin annoying just raced a corvette and me fans werent cutting in so stopped and switched the fuse as it was fooked

 

Is it the correct amp fuse? Shorting out?

 

Fan motor going knackered mate.......they start to tighten up and blow fuses...just put a new one on my sapphy.....

 

Too much current being drawn through it if it is melting. Probably between 30 and 45/50 amps to melt a 30 amp fuse....

 

no its deffo fan motor my mate had the same problem and his 3 door set on fire

 

better get a new fan motor then ...is this the same as on other fords or is it cossy special ?

 

Common cossie problem mate, i put a whole new loom in mine...sorted

Cable fords use for the fans is shit out of the factory so you can imagine what it's gonna be like after 14 years!!!!!

 

VERY common problem mate. Just replace all the wiring for the fans and it will be fine. I have done mine

Here is a VERY good Auto-CAD drawing i did for you

 

its the initial start up drawing too much current, rewire them

 

Not just Cossies that do this - Fiesta RS Turbo's do it alot as well!

 

Cause its a shonky left hand drive rot box!

 

I've rewired mine all toghether, seperate fan relay and fuse now. Its a common problem and a right pain. Best to rewire it.

 

£3,000 worth of Autocad and the drawing looks THAT shit? Damn!

 

just cut the wire and put a inline fuse in it and it sorted mine out

 

thanks for the drawing tiff

Lewis fook off u shonky jap crap driver

i hate f ookin wiring

 

Oi that shonly jap care is gettin u to & from the airport & TOTB!

& U recon'd it was hard work gettin in2 the escort! try gettin in 2 a car designed for a 5ft oriental!

 

glad it aint fookin black pmsl! we were getting cooked in that fookin bean tin!

 

Aye we got Air Con now baby!

Its all kool!

 

glad to hear that mate can we pick up some small girls so they can heat us up when needed pmsl!

we cant get it too cold now can we LOL

 

they'd have to b small to sit in the back seats! espically with us lanky coonts in the front! wait til u see em m8! they r so not worth being there!

 

yeah i know what they look like from the inside almost like an MR2 fook al in the back PMSL!

 

fooker went fooked again

will rewire it asap ffs!

 

have put in a 75 amp fuse now hope it will work till i get the wiring sorted

 

btw what kind of relay do i need??

 

I got the same thing, had a new loom so it can only be the fans I guess. Still on standard fuse at the moment, might look to upping that... hope nothing catches fire

 

if the fooker caught on fire i'd be seriously fooked!

 

My fusebox is melted to fook anyway, previous owner didn't bother replacing a broken fusebox cover, then steam-cleaned the engine

 

well only the part that's melted is where the fan fuse should be it did work a few mins ago when i pushed it against the contacts .. but will make a wire directly to the fans tomoz so i can switch it on and sort the wiring

things like these are getting me in 2 minds about it but yesterday racing that corvette well didnt

 

PMSL at Tiffs diagram getting ripped!!

 

if i wanted to put a fuse in tiff's drawing where should it be?
