Default Which engine type do you have? AJ16 or V12 ?

Hi RJ237, it is 1995 MY, but late 1994 build. Anyway, are you saying that it is correct for the fan to come on with the key even when engine is completely cold? If that is so then yippee! I don't have a dreaded electrical problem at all. It only has one fan on the right hand side of the rad. The left hand side just has some rubber flaps to let air through with increasing road speed.
You say your Cat has only 1 fan. Do you have a straight AJ16 or a V12 type engine?

Hi BigBoss, My car has the straight six 4litre with supercharger. On the right side of the rad is an electric fan; the left side is covered with rubber flaps that obviously will open as road speed increases to allow more air to pass through the core. Is this arrangement unique, or just for British market I wonder?

You will notice I have one of the rubber flaps missing.

One more thing, Is there any chance a prior owner removed the 2nd fan that is attached to the lower LHS of the radiator below the 2 rubber flaps?
Just a thought

Yeah. I have never heard of an alternate fan arrangement by market. Maybe an owner "mod" or aftermarket kludge.
