Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 Energy Coolant temp warning

[lloyd h]

Internal clip went on one of the hoses from the coolant a few weeks ago returning home from Fairford, needless to say eng temp light came on but it was already too late - so head gasket jobby. Thats all been sorted reluctantly but its been run in around 2000 miles now however over the past few days the coolant temp warning light has flashed up for about 30 seconds and then disappears. Checked the coolant/water levels and it hasn't lost any but the cooling fan sounds like its constantly working even within 4-5 minutes of driving, which was never the case before, anybody have any ideas? I've read it could possibly be a faulty radiator coolant temp sensor...


Thanks in advance.

Who did the head gasket?

If a garage, ask them to take a look

The fan should not be running all the time.
