Been trying to set up a Kenlowe fan in my 300 TDI. Following the instructions I turned the adjustment knob fully clockwise, ran the engine so that the temperature gauge was halfway between N and H. Then slowly turned the adjuster knob back towards C. When it reached C, the fan blades jerked and stopped.
Temperature gauge pointer and fuel gauge pointer were now as in the ignition off position as fuse number 8 in the main fuse box had blown.
Checked all wiring connectors were in the right place. Checked fan motor free to turn - OK.
Changed the 10 Amp fuse and tried to set the knob to let the fan cut in again four or five times - fuses kept blowing.
Tried again with 15 Amp, 20 amp, 25 Amp and 30 Amp fuses - still blows them.
Fitted brand new genuine Land Rover OE temperature sender AMR 1425 -fuses still blow.
I can switch the fan on manually without any problems by the Kenlowe over ride switch and the fan runs nicely.
I have spoken to a Kenlowe engineer who did not know why there is a problem, but he's promised to look into it and get back to me.
Can anyone please help me out ?
