Hi,
Well this is my girlfriends 1999 NEW BEETLE... anywho... well yesterday.... her car started to over heat... She pulls over and she says her fans arent working... It has done it before... Were the fans wont work... but then they misteriously do.... Anywho i told her to leave the car were it was and i would pick it up after work... Well we get there and we let the engine warm up and nothing... Fans still arent coming on... I told her to turn on her A/C to full blast to see if the fans would kick in and surely they did.. we were able to limp her beetle quite a distance until about a mile from my house... she was running the A/C and she quickly pulls over and turns off the engine and she tells me the red over-heat light came on... anywho... let the car cool down... and try to start it again with the A/C on full blast and noting... the fans arent spinning anymore... i try to check fuses and nothing... fans never turned on again... any-who we limped the car home that way... and this morning... i warm up the engine and put the A/C on full blast and the fans work... wierd... what can this be? All fuses are okay i even went ahead and cleaned her battery terminals and replaced almost all of them with aftermarket fuses... Can this be the coolant sensor? if so were is it located... is there also a relay that should be changed... thanks...
just her fans arent coming on anymore... atleast not after she has driven it for awhile... this problem was in the past but it went away and now its
back... NO ERROR CODES OR ANYTHING....
