Cooling Fan Sensor

If your car is suffering overheating problems and you've identified that your cooling fan is not working properly then you may have a cooling fan sensor problem.
Whilst some cars have thermostatic switches to control the cooling fan, those with engine computer systems use

cooling fan sensors

. It's the job of the cooling fan sensor to identify the coolant temperature properly and start the cooling fan to protect the engine if the coolant is too hot. When the coolant is back down to a manageable temperature the sensor stops the fan.
