[QUOTE="moots, post: 33751, member: 219"] well...my ac fan was not running as it shud.it runs at medium speed when the condensor heats up and cycles on and off.and runs at hi speed if the engine is real hot ie it acts like an aux fan.but recently even the medium speed osso don't work.so after reading up,the ac fan is supposed to work at slow speed when ac is on and medium speed when the condensor heat up and hi speed when the engine hits hi temps.the cause is the 2 power resistor located on the fan itself.called bav auto and was surprised they have stock.didn't change as a whole harness assembly as it wud be too messy.so instead i spliced in both the resistors and hey presto....the fan works as how it was designed.quite expensive at rm215 but beats a second hand fan at rm300 and new fan at more than rm1k.
