cooling

Got my slight overheating problem sorted almost. The passenger side fan at the front is u/s so I'm off to get a new one or find a second hand one somewhere. Mech tested it yesterday but even when putting direct power to it, it did nothing. Means the sensor under the wheel arch must be fine so...

Hi Guys and Guyesses, Could anybodytell me, Do PC case cooling fans force air into a PC case or extract air from the PC case? I have a mother board monitoring system that tells me the zone temperatures ,and each has a limited threshold before it alarms. It appears that the...

A couple of questions for the technical members about a year 2000, C200 (W202) with air conditioning. 1. Should the cooling fan operate when air conditioning is turned on regardless of engine/water temperature? 2. What is the simpliest method of checking the fan, e.g. shorting out the...

I recently changed the thermostat on my E220 cdi as it was running at a cool 60c .... the now runs up to temp but when I started the car from cold with the bonnet up the electric fan was running.

Hi Guys I am having a nightmare with my 92 300sl 24v recently. About a month ago one of the coolant pipes ruptured which I linked to a faulty thermostat which I replaced and hey presto everything working ok. However after a few weeks my heater blower started to work intermittantly making a...

Hi All, Went downstairs this morning and jumped in the xfire, to hear that the electric fans were still on after parking the car at abour 9:30pm last night. Second time this has happened in two days. Called the old man back in Oz, who mentioned that the control unit for these in a Merc...

Guys 'had the old W124's Rad changed out following a pressure test (whereby the old rad failed at the top header seam.) This was done as precaution as we're touring abroad very soon :cool: Occasionally the low coolant level warning light comes on the dash, ( the Temp gauge never goes...

Wonder if anyone can help with this one? W124 E280 1994 model. Just returned from a continental tour and the car was an absolute peach for the whole journey. Ploughed back up the M25 car park and back up the M1 on Sunday - no worrries despite heavy traffic. Yesterday in dense traffic &...

W124 (1989) Engine Cooling Fan - Electromagnetic Fan Clutch. Hi I had a bank holiday motoring experience today and I feel a 'reet chump'! Basically spent an hour in start stop conditions and engine temp rose...and rose until (I suspect) the expansion chamber pressure cap lifted and let go...

On the front of the rad are 2 fans (air con?) the nearside is electric with a belt from that to the other. How much has to come off to fit a new belt? Is it a DIY job
