Short circuit in the factory wiring or the mod you added or the fan motor is seized / locked.

Hi Alex,

Indeed the fan motor seems to be locked. I have recently had a shop paint the bumper, apparently they sprayed some onto the fan motor.

What i did is rotate the fan with my hand, it didnt rotate freely at first but after 180 degrees it did a bit. i replace the fuse #2 in the cabin and turned on the switch and voila it worked.

The sad part is when i started the car later, the fuse blew again and found that the fan is stuck again.

Any special spray i can use to clean it and have it move freely again ?

Thanks

I haven't had one apart or out, so I do not know what type of bearing is used. That will determine what can be done.

BTW, having an oil cooler fan working where you live is a lot more critical than say an AC condenser fan that does not work.

You have a PM.
