Cooling Fan on continuously 2015 Custom

Postby DCL » Thu Feb 16, 2017 8:11 pm

My cooling fan is running continuously. Air con is not on, or set to demist, and I've checked the two high and low speed relays. Any ideas what might be the problem before I take it to the dealer? It probably started when the fan came on normally in standing traffic, but never switch off, and it's now on at start up.

Just to report that this was resolved very quickly under warranty. Apparently the problem was that the 'air con was stuck on'. Whether this was due to a mechanical, electrical, or software, fault I don't know.

Could that be the dpf being regenerated? Or maybe a faulty temperature sensor?
I would check for codes and maybe live data (temp sensors specially)

DPF stands for diesel particulate filter. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_ ... ate_filter

It traps crap from the exhaust to reduce emissions and every now and then it needs cleaning. Every car does it different but basically they all rise the exhaust temperature to burn all the stuff it collected.
Some cars turn on the fan, heaters, etc to increase the load on the alternator and therefore on the engine so they can inject more fuel and rise the exhaust temperature.

I'm not sure if your car has a DPF and/or if it will turn the fan on when regenerating. It was just a thought.

If you connect it to a diagnostics machine you should be able to see the DPF saturation. If it's above 70% it might be trying to regenerate.

But again. I would make sure that ALL sensors (including all temperature sensors) are working correctly.

Hope it helps
