Basically i've got to the point where my radiator fans have stopped working.

For some reason i have a blue wire which is connected to one of the relays in the fan housing system which trails down to the bitron unit. Now the bitron unit appears to have been snipped into for god knows what reason but it appears that the wires have been connected in the past and may have come apart. I put the wire's together and unplugged the brown sensor of the thereostat housing and i can hear a faint clicking when the wires are joined which is the relay i assume?.. But the fans dont come on. Its near on impossible to connect the wires back together as the wire which comes off the loom has been snipped out with only around 2mm of cable left. Pain in the arse!

My question is how hard would it be to wire up a single aftermarket radiator fan and have it on a manual switch inside the car. (so basically bypass all the origional wiring etc)

Cheers

I'd just fix the standard wiring, less efford than fitting a switch.

if the relays are clicking it might be a seized fan.

Fans are free spinning chap.

If you could see the loom which goes into the birton unit you'd understand what i mean. I will upload photo's in a second.

if the relay clicks they should spin up, that's if there's power to them in the first place mind.
