did a few pre mot checks on the car today, moved the exhaust a bit, so its not vibrating so much. Adjusted the handbrake too, as it wasn't holding the car on two clicks,
then took it out for a run to see if my exhaust movement made any difference, gave it some beans as some one tried to be up the arse of it. took it for a quick drive a long the country road, comes back and my back up fan system had kicked in! the temp gauges were reading about 60 ish as it normally does, car was pulling hard so. something must have upset the ecu to switch the mpi fan system on, as the spi fan system kicks in before the mpi does.
got the car home, and did a few checks, it was ok. switched the car off and back on, The fan still came on, so it must not be reading the brown water sensor. so powered it off and back on and it went off. So either the car has got a touch of French electrics I don't know!
But it was nice to hear the back up system working for me! kept the temp down on the engine if case of anything went wrong.
Good idea I think having the back up system on!
