Possible coolant sensor fault (green switch at right hand side of cylinder head, behind the air filter box), or cooling fan on the radiator not working.
Re: engine temp high
The XU10J2TE has 2 CTSs (one for the ECU, one for the dash) and the ES9J4 and ES9J4S have 3 (ECU, dash, and dash warning light). Dunno about the HDi, but if there's multiple sensors then it won't be a CTS at fault unless both are knackeredjasper5 wrote:Possible coolant sensor fault (green switch at right hand side of cylinder head, behind the air filter box),
Could be the thermostat stuck shut though?
or this - they like to die. It's easy to test on 406s - just unplug the CTS with the ignition on. If it doesn't move, chances are the fan motor's knackered or the relay(s) mounted in the shroud are gone.jasper5 wrote:cooling fan on the radiator not working.
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
