I have a '00 C2, 6-speed, Canada version. I keep an eye on the operating temperature, using the OBD hack rather than the gage. In traffic, the car has always run pretty warm, regularly over 100 C in the spring-summer-fall. Last night, it was up over 105 C, and I thought I'd hop out and check to see if the cooling fans had switched to high speed as they are supposed to at this temperature. On the passenger side of the car, the fan was loud and you could feel air being moved. On the driver side, the fan was on but quieter, and less air was moving. Is this normal? If not, can you suggest an explanation? I can imagine losing a fan altogether, but I can't figure out why it would just refuse to switch speeds. TIA, Bruce.1 point

The switch in my fan mod is not to correct a non functioning fan system or relay. Fixing the relay fault is quite simple and should be done with new relays when necessary. The fan mod is to turn on the HIGH speed fans at will and at any temperature. Or you can eliminate the switch altogether and have the high speed fans come on below a certain engine speed, vehicle speed, etc.1 point

Jim. I finally got to install your mod for the radiator fans. Pretty easy to wiggle the wires onto pin #85 on the relays... I got the footwell light toggle switch (996 613 980 00) to control on/off for the fans, but am at a loss now, as this switch only keeps the fans running while you keep the switch depressed. Did I get the wrong switch? Is there a trick to wire it differently (I used the two horizontal and vertical fins in the middle of the switch) or should I get a different toggle switch? Joost1 point

Who knew! I was avoiding using search criteria this specific! Thank you, Loren. Looks like the search begins at the fuse panel... Bruce.1 point
