Radiator fans on for engine cooling only not AC cooling
Dear All,
I recently noticed the P0480 Engine cooling fan 1 malfunction code on my VCDS Hex scan. This seems logical since the AC is a bit warmer when the car is not moving, so missing the fan to cool the condenser. Today I tried the engine output tests for the first time and both the fan 1 and fan 2 operate when I switch these on via the engine output tests - excellent. When I use the Convenience systems AC output tests for cooling fan the cooling fan output is not working and the fan stays off. In the data fields it states N/A for all. Please suggest what I will need to check since both fans actually operate and it looks like a control issue from the AC control system. Apoligies if this issue is challenging, trying my luck hoping someone will know... Thanks again for your help thus far on this wonderfully complicated creature Cheers, Stephen in Scarborough
