The cooling fan cuts in after about 10 second after turning the key, and then stays on even after the key is removed, untill i take out the fuse! The temperature gauge reads correctly but the overheat light at the top is constantly on!
I have change the two sensors on the water pump but it has made no difference!
also fitted new rad and refilled system, any help would be much appreciated!
