On a short run this morning I noticed the water temp over the 100ºC mark. I think that the cooling fan is not kicking in! Any ideas....please bear in mind that I am mechanically STOOOPID!

I had this happen to mine a few weeks ago. Firstly check the fuses and the relays (there is a guide in the owners manual). If these are ok it is most likely the temperature sensor and will require a trip to the dealer, only a small job.

Good luck.

Find out where (from a dealer, I don't know where it is, post when you find out!) where the temp. sensor is for the ECU. Water can get in causing short circuit. Fixed by taking off and drying out, sealing as necessary.

Cheers,

Andy.
