Cooling fans

turn on air con as see if there work! shouldnt have power going there if the car doesnt want them on

take the fuses on top of the battery out and check to see if the spade connectors are black or the fuse holder is melted at all. Sometimes the fans draw too much current and the fuse arcs between the contacts (and doesnt melt!!), as the contacts get burnt or coated in molten plastic it can stop working altogether.

ok cheers guys.

basicly the temp gauge goes above 90 and keeps goin if sat still (takes a while) and fans dnt cut in.
but havnt tested for power when its been at 90degrees, will do this 1st fing 2moz.
