I have an xtype 2007 Jaguar and am in Horsham Victoria. Australia.
My auto electrician has diagnosed a faulty fan control module relay for my aircon not producing cold air. He has suggested a genuine jaguar module however the cost is very high. 6 months ago i had the fan speed controller module replaced by the local mechaninc but the air con has not worked since then. My auto electrician said the xtype fan module relay comes in a bundle and is only sold with the fan and other components. He said finding a used module would be risky as it might also suffer the same problem. Due to the cost of a new module, i am searching for alternatives to getting a working fan control relay module at an affordable price. I am also concerned that the last one fitted stopped the aircon from delivering cold air.
Am after suggestions for example has anyone had good experience with used modules and where would i find a used genuine jag xtype fan module?
I will also need to re-gas the aircon.
Thank you.

 

There seems to be a collection of unrelated issues at hand:
1. Fan control module is not expensive and can be sourced independently, not in a bundle.
2. The speed of the fan does not effect the air conditioning system.
3. Your fan issues are not related to the pressures of the air conditioning system.
4. I for one am very leery of used electrical components unless they have been through a reconditioning process. But please do heed my 1.
A quick glance at rockauto.com should provide an indication of parts costs and availabilities.
Cheers.

 

Posting this in the model specific forum might get more knowledgeable eyeballs on your issue, rather than being tucked away in VIC/TAS.

I do recall this issue has come up several times before in X-Type forum. Send me a PM if you want it moved.

yes Graham, i would appreciate it if you could move my post to the appropriate area. Thank you.

 

Thank you Guy, really appreciate your comments. I have heard the xtype module changed after 2005 and it is important to get the appropriate module (of course).
I did wonder if it was suddenly selling in a bundle that there might be a reason, such as the module and fan need package communicate better together than what was previously offered, or it could be a money grab, i really dont know.
