Default How to troubleshoot non-functioning cooling fan

Have 2002 S-Type 3.0 with 65K miles. Finally getting around to work on the radiator fan issues. Haven't had the fan go on in ages - doesn't turn on when I turn the a/c on high and fan on nor does it come on when the engine is running hot (previous post https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...ng-hot-100086/).


I went ahead and got a replacement fan, shroud, controller and replaced the existing fan. Still fan will not turn on.


I also checked the fuses - the 80A and the 10A fuses in engine compartment are fine (as are the other fuses) - confirmed continuity with multimeter.


Didn't check any relays. The harnesses looks good on the outside, no frayed wires or obvious breaks - haven't checked continuity with meter yet.


I am assuming that since both the A/C (which runs fine otherwise) and the hot engine do not turn the fan on, it must be something that is common to both?


For now I would like to assume that replacement fan, controller are in working order and focus on other areas first.


Any suggestion exactly what/where I should be looking at to narrow down whats broken?


Any help would be appreciated.
(BTW did search for similar issues - people had wires that were frayed or not connected or suggestions to check fuse).

Well, it's a (PWM - see my sig) signal from the PCM so next suspect would be wiring or connector. Quite uncommon, whatever it is.

Lt0302 - haven't worked any further on fan - don't really drive the car much and it's been extremely cold this winter - putting it off till spring now. Would appreciate if you keep us posted on what you find out.
