2.1.."overheating??"
I think my fan relay has gone up the swanny (no 5)
The engine on my 2.1 is running hotter and the fan is not coming on.
Checked the fan and seems fine but have noticed the relay clicking..
Does anybody know where i can get one from

Seal should come with new sender.
Take off grill, pull plug off.
Bridge wires out, doesn't matter which, if the fan doesn't run, try a different combination.
You should get a low speed and a high speed.
if it does, then your switch is knackered, if it doesn't your problem is elsewhere.
In 2 years of fixing mostly T3's for a living I have yet to find a fan problem other than a faulty switch.
Im not saying there isn't a problem elsewhere, just in my experience very unlikely.

Just took the bus out and the heat gauge has gone to the top and the water light is flashing
On inspection the water level is fine and the engine dosent seem over hot..
Could this be down to the rad switch as ive not heard it cut in!!
Tested the fan as you said and it works fine....
