95 XJ6 temp sensor?

Cooling fan runs ALL THE TIME! Ran the battery down twice before I caught it. Pulled fuse to stop it. Is there some sort of sensor that turns fans off and on as required? Where is it located? Thanks! KB

Yes there is on the radiator, 1 or 2 depending on the make and model, look for a fairly big bolt that you can screw out of the radiator side with 2 wires running out of it

SOURCE: heating jaguar 1996 xj6 all works but no heat at all

due to the fact there is duel zone heating in these cars there is a heater control unit could a amplifier these tend to fail and you wont be able to get any heat a genuine unit is very expensive around $1500 but if you shop around you can get one for around $250 non genuine
then its just a matter of getting a jag tech to fit it

good luck

SOURCE: 2004 Jaguar x type electric radiator fans not operating

check out with your dealer as you might have a recall to fix this problem.
XT303-S932
X-TYPE
DATE 01/03
MODEL
2002-03 MY
X-TYPE
VIN
C00294-C91719
Overheating - Cooling Fans Inoperative - Replace Module Prior To Retailing - Service Action S932
This Service Action Applies to Vehicles That Have Not Been Retailed
Issue:
The cooling fan module on X-TYPE vehicles may fail under certain circumstances. There are various root causes but the design and quality of the printed circuit board within the cooling fan module are the most significant. The NAND gate used in the circuit is detective causing multiple failure modes, this can result in high engine temperature and overheating due to the cooling fans not operating.
A change has been implemented in production from VIN C91720. On these vehicles a 'Philips' printed circuit board has been used that has a modified voltage spike protection strategy.
Action:
To prevent customers from experiencing this issue, install the latest specification cooling fan module on 2002-03 MY X-TYPE vehicles within the above VIN range that have not been retailed.
PROCEDURE
1. Install new cooling fan module (see Workshop Manual, JTIS CD ROM, section: 303-03, SRO 26.25.38).
Parts Information
Warranty Information:
Warranty claims should be submitted quoting S932 in place of the warranty fault code together with SRO: 26.25.38 and the relevant part number. This will result in a labor time allowance of 0.8 hours to replace the cooling fan module and payment for the part used. Should the vehicle be brought back into the workshop for this action alone to be undertaken, an additional labor time allowance of 0.1 hours can be claimed quoting SRO: 10.10.10 for drive in/drive out.
Warranty claims should be submitted quoting the information found in the table. This will result in payment of the stated time and, where applicable, parts/miscellaneous expense codes.
The options that allow for drive in/drive out may only be claimed when the vehicle has been brought in to the workshop for this action alone to be undertaken.
The SROs and parts items listed above have been included for information only, there will be no requirement to enter the parts or SROs onto the claim.
NOTE: Always perform a DDW claim search first to determine whether this service action has been performed on this vehicle. The warranty selection under the vehicle inquiry will give a listing of all claims against the vehicle. If this service action number appears in the program code field, do not perform this service action.

SOURCE: xk8 Jaguar cooling fans do not come on at all.

I had the same problem on my XK8 and I figured out that due to the age, this could be a failure of the thermostat. The thermostat is a valve that is closed when engine is cool and opened when it is warm. Quite often for being old is does not operate properly and the coling liquid is being blocked in one part of the circuit. The temperatuire sensor starts the high fan mode that keeps on all time.
A way to check on that is to see the behaviour of the cooling fans. If the high cooling mode of fan only appear after a few miles nd keep on going from this point it is very lickely a problem a thermostat that has to be replaced. Just have to purchase one in any internet reseller and get your mechanical shop to replace it.

SOURCE: radiator fan won't turn off. car not overheating.

It could be the program in the ECM where it may run for a few min before it's commanded by the ECM to shut down or the other thing is the radiator fan Relay may be bad and is sticking in the close loop position and needs to be replaced. A bad Relay may get stuck in the open loop and your not going to have an cool fan working, causing overheating in stop and go traffic. Good luck and hope this helps.

2003 Lincoln town car engine cooling fan will not stop running?

In the diagram, pull that fuse, so it doesn't run the battery down. Of course when you drive the vehicle, plug the fuse back in. Any applicable trouble codes? In the diagram, you can see the cylinder head temp sensor. I can't guarantee the sensor is the problem, there could be other issues?

Unplug the fan on sensor. It should have one green wire and one black wire. Use a paper clip and jump the two wires. Turn the key to the run position, the engine does not need to be running. Does the fan come on? If not check the green wire for 12 volts and the black wire for ground. If there is no ground than run a new ground wire. If the is no power check the heater/air conditioning fuse in the under dash fuse block. If there is power and ground make sure both the cooling fan fuses are good and both the cooling fan relays are good.

there are 4 steps to check and you've mentioned all but one the relay which cuts the fan on'off. At an elec shop you check in this order power to fuse block, fuse & output side, temp sensor, relay, and fan motors. Get a new relay

When I turn the engine off the main radiator fan keeps running and is draining the battery. Why?

well the electric fan will turn on and off at any time. when you stop your vehicle and the fan continues to run what is happening is the temp sensor says the motor is still too hot and it needs more cooling. now as it reaches the cooling temp it is also suppose to shut it down. have the sensors checked.

Overheating fan will not run ! I change cooling sensor, fan relay,new radiator, thermostat, fan motor, check all fuses, tank low coolint sensor, put fresh coolant in also. (1998 achieva SL 3100 V6 SFI )...

there isa short in the wiring somewhere,which a shop can check for you,or check your thermostat. after 20 years i still have to make sure tat i dont install it upside down. which is easy to do if your in a hurry. my bet is that the wiring going to the coolant sensor has a bare spot and grounding somewhere.

Replaced fan twice and it still wont run

check the temp sensor on the lower radiator hose. Have it tested by pulling the plug on the sensor. It is located at the end of the hose towards the engine. If you pull out the plug the fan should go on. If the fan turns on you may need to replace the temp sensor. If it does not turn on check the relay usually found in the small plastic boxes under the hood. The cover of the boxes usually has a diagram to tell what the components are.

95 grand am radiator fan only runs with AC on

Cooling Fan Temp Sensor is the First thing You Check (with what you have described) Cooling Fan Should ALways come On When The A/C is turned On as A/C Adds A Load to Engine, If Temp Sensor is Faulty it Will Not Give GROUND Signal to ECM >For COOLING FAN >RELAY to Give ground and turn ON The Fan.
There ARE 2 temp Sensors that Serve Different Purposes 1 is for Dash READING GAGE & Or TEMP LIGHT the Other is For ECM or Fan Relay (SAME Thing) you Said>""can disconnect the sensor and fan continues to run" < This Leads me to think you Changed the Wrong One. Not Questioning your Skills Just Here to Help.
TEMP SENSOR FOR 3.1L V6 is Located upper RH rear of engine compartment, near exhaust system. Temp SENSOR for 2.3L Engine is Located in LH rear of engine compartment.
I Hope this Helps Lead you to a NON-OVERHEATING Pontiac.
Good Luck and Have A Great Evening. rejakwilson

1998 jaguar xj8 fan is on

I have a 1997 XJ6 that had the problem with the cooling fans running constantly. I had to remove the fuse to turn it off to keep the battery from running down. It turned out my solution was that an A/C sensor on the firewall (there are two) was bad. When I replaced it the problem went away.
