[Ritchy]

no worries dude, let me know if you want me to.

Cheers for the info ritchy... gonna get a price anyway me thinks and if there peanuts I will get both and keep one as a spare because its holding at -4 here.

they dont usually go due to the cold, usually the bearing wear out, or they go stiff(usually heater resistor will go down first in that case), or the brushes, and not so much on the zs but lieks of the 3 series, one coil goes down internally in the motor so if the fan stops in a certain place it can't start, turn it a little and it'll go again

[lawrence-zs180]

ahh right.. got to know, mine squeeks every now and then... seems to be the trend on my car at the min haha

[Ritchy]

perhaps something stuck in it or the bearing may be a bit dry, hmm, maybe some silicone spray grease

[lawrence-zs180]

nice one... will add it to the list for thurs.. weather permitting haha

yea its on the left at the end of the piping that the resistor is on.

[Ritchy]

have you got a testlamp? if you put the fan on and probe the connector it should light up(also a mutimeter set to 20volts setting)
