No fan = temp rise = overheating = overflow.. . . . would a fan not working cause the coolant lose

Mr. Bertrand's recommendations are what I would start with. And then put 12v directly to the fan.

I concur. If the fuse is good and fan works when wired directly.......I'll bet a cold beer that the relay shit the bed. ($30 fix....fingers crossed for ya!)No fan = temp rise = overheating = overflow.

Message TABASCO would be the easiest way. It's what "I" would do.can i ask where the relay is if you know

I fitted an FJR fan to my 1st S10 so they deffo fit, I did have to change the wiring connection though but that isn’t difficult. I’m pretty sure I have a spare one in the man cave too as I bought a pair from the US and only used oneif i need a fan as the motor has died there £600 in the uk thats not happening is it right fjr fan is the same ie will this below work

On the contrary, the scenario you describe (overheating and overflowing when stationary) is exactly what will happen if the fan has failed. They are absolutely related.can,t see how the fan has failed bike not dropped it spins freely, i,ll lift the tank to check the plug, but this fan not working i,m assuming is seperate to the coolant lose out of the expansion pipe on the road when parked up, would a fan not working cause the coolant lose

might need that rob, if you will possibly sell if i can,t sort something i heard on facebook as well the MT09 fan is a direct replacementI fitted an FJR fan to my 1st S10 so they deffo fit, I did have to change the wiring connection though but that isn’t difficult.

I believe you want some dielectric grease Rob. As usual i stand to be corrected.before i put it all back together, this fan plug is a pig to get to, even tho i,ve cleaned it up and fan working now, how can i protect this plug from failing early again, can you put grease inside the plug and push the 2 parts together to keep the weather out even then covering in electric tape as well, any thoughts before i re assemble
