Hi can any one help
Qashqai j10 2011 n tec
Air con was blowing warm so just had a re gas , they did the leak test all ok , then added the gas
All works great all cold BUT & here is the but …been advised off the guy who did the job that he wasn’t sure how the radiator fan should behave……when I put the air con on the radiator fan comes on and goes off intermitant, it runs for may be 30 seconds then stops for may be 20 seconds then back on for 30 seconds
This is when parked with bonnet up …unsure what happens when driving

Is this a radiator controll fan module problem or is this how the fan should behave

If it’s the module we’re is it located

Thanks for any help

I don't think the 2 are related, just coincidence. However having said that, the engine is working marginally harder the with aircon on, how is you temperature gauge, normal or hotter that normal?
