Hi!
Thanks for taking the time to read this thread. I am not a car person admittedly so if I get any parts wrong or misstate anything I apologize in advance!
I have an 'issue' with my radiator fan. My car is still under the SEAT used and approved warrantee so recently I took it back to be checked out and the dealership reported no errors or faults with any parts. However that being said I have had many issues with this dealership withholding information and sending me all around the world for answers to other problems which is why I am a bit cautious to listen to them then they say it is fine.
In short when I turn my aircon on in the car without the engine being on, the aircon works perfectly and has no issues. However once the engine is turned on the radiator fan starts running on high (it is always around 12/13 seconds off and 3/4 seconds active) and will repeat this indefinitely until the air con is turned off. I find it strange that the fan only ever comes on for this long repeatedly (the seconds never change it is always the exact same length of time) and that this doesn't happen when the engine is off. It doesn't matter if the car has just started or whether it has been running for hours, the exact same fan speed and timing turns on regardless. Is there any chance that anything is faulty or shorting as the dealership has stated that is just the way my car is but my friends car of exact same year and make produces no noise at all.
I do have video evidence is that would help. Appreciate any answers/help you guys can give and please try keep it dumb for me!!
Thanks,
Nathan
