Unsure tbh

Post by tjbrookes2004 » Sat Feb 04, 2023 3:29 pm

Hi peeps,
I have a problem with a broken connector located on the side of the engine under the glow plug rail.
It looks like plastic and has 2 pins .

I have attached a couple of photos because my description might be vague

Hi. That's the fan sensor. If it fails, or is disconnected, the fans will be constantly on.

Thank you so much , yes my fan is on constantly. I was hoping it was the reason why my bongo wouldn't start.

I was having trouble with starting, it would start OK but soo after it would struggle until it got warm , so I had my glow plugs changed and now it won't run at all
