99 vectra rad fan - hackett
hi all
i have two fans on my rad ,front and rear,(the fan at the back,) can someone explain why .is one of them for the air con. the one at the front keeps stopping so moved it with my fingers and it was seized but the started to spin. and it is blowing a 30 amp fuse in the little fuse holder next to the right hand side of the rad ,there are two 30 amp fuses and its the one at the back of the box that keeps blowing...is the fan broke and causing the fuse to blow or could it be something else.
is it easy to fit a new fan .
cheers

Both fans should be running slow speed when the a/c is switched on.The one at the front(2 speed) is usually the faulty unit when the fuse blows.Replacement requires removal of the bumper to gain access to the fixings.The fan can be tested independently by locating the large 3-pin black connector that sits on top of radiator.There are three wires ;brown is the negative (earth)and the 2 speeds are black & red.
