Radiator Fan not kicking in
contrary to normal question on radiator fans on the Fiesta, whereby it has a tendancy to stay on when the aircon is on (I am led to believe this is normal) my fan is not kicking in - something I only discovered in this heatwave in a traffic jam when steam started to come from the bonnet.. I suspect it may be related to changing the heated windscreen over the winter, if so I hope its just a fuse change job rather than a £300+ garage bill. Can anyone advise how I can check if its a fuseb and if so if replacement is easy ? I've checked the obvious mini-fuses and they seem fine, but the manual also suggests those large box type fuses control the fan, and its not clear which fan they refer to - the heater fan or radiator fan.

Re: Radiator Fan not kicking in
Had to replace the relay on mine (bloody great grey one under the bonnet), the contacts had burnt out, apparently a common problem as the bloke said he'd sold 6 in a fortnight...
