    TD5 Defender Condenser Fan runs constantly, assistance please

    Hi All, please help me to sort it out.

    I noticed it today. If the ignition key on start position (engine not running), fan sits quietly. After engine starting it starts working too and stops only after turning off the ignition. It spins for 3-5 seconds and stops.

    The air con is off, all switches (the blower motor and temperature control) are turned off. Also I can hear the compressor clutch when turning on the air con. So everything works as normal, only fan doesn't want to relax.

    Thanks,
    Ruslan

    After reading some older posts...

    The coolant level is normal, have it changed 7-8 weeks ago and had no problems with running fan, no oil in ECU direction, possibly somewhere wires or earth problem.

    try removing the plug on the bottom of the head at the drivers side front to check for oil assuming theres nothing there given that youve just changed the coolant you might have had the thing air pocket the head, the head coolants gotten hot enough to upset the ECU and then its purged itself.

    I havent seen it personally but its a technical possability.

    Its time to get the ECU cleared and see if it repeats....
