Opel Astra 2 G 2.0 16V: Radiator Fan Continues Running Post Engine Shutdown

Jasviz 56169 20
Best answers

Why does the radiator fan on an Opel Astra G 2.0 16V keep running after the engine is turned off, and how can it be fixed?

The fan keeps running because the fan control module is faulty; replacing the module fixed the problem [#14838763] Check the module in the bumper on the driver’s side, pull it out, and inspect the relay contacts [#14830588][#14831154] One suggested test was to unplug the temperature sensor and see whether the fan still spins, which helps rule the sensor out [#14828848] In this case the final repair was a module replacement, after which everything worked normally [#14838763]

    Hello!
    I have an Opel Astra 2 G 2.0 16V and I have a problem, namely the radiator fan works all the time and even after turning off the engine it does not turn off. You have to choose a fuse or disconnect the clamp. I have some suspicions that this is a broken module. Thank you in advance for any help :D

    And did you give the fan some work? After all, there is a thermal switch there and after the engine cools down, it should turn it off.

    Just as I leave the car overnight without a fuse and in the morning I will come in and put the fuse in, that's also the case, so it's probably not it. How would the sensor also be replaced

    Do you have 2 fans there? They both walk together, which gear?
    Which fuse are you pulling out?
    It would be useful to check if the relay in the fan controller is stuck.

    and did you check the sensor?
    I know that the new one .. But I am equally skeptical about the new ones ..
    Just unplug the plug from it and tell if the fan is still spinning.

    And with the electronics everything is okey? ;) I'm joking of course..
    Do you know what it's like to trust an electronics engineer instead of yourself? ;)
    Removing the ankle costs you nothing, it will take you about 1 minute and you will have one certainty.

    I mean, one fan works all the time and the other one turns off normally.

    What controller, since, has one fan and a relay, as you can see, controlled from the engine's ecu.

    After all, he wrote that he has two fans and one runs all the time, so how do you want to have two fans connected separately to two relays where they control two gears?
    I haven't seen two fans without a driver yet.
    Although you are right that the relays are in the place where the relays should be from controlling the fans by the ECU.

    The module is in the bumper on the driver's side. And the lamp is sometimes holy, sometimes not
