i put a direct 12v to pin 3 and attempted the test again.
Still the same nothing what so ever except lhs/ has a unit with 2 pipes and some electrical connections at 1 end underneath the radiator filler bottle this seemed to energise when volts applied to pin 3 and maybe had a clicking although it sound like wires arcing.

Damn its getting more complicated  :'(

Thats the electric coolant pump (on cars with winter pack). Give the orange relay under in the triangular relay box a sharp tap and try your test again!)

Still nothing...i wired the radiator fan direct to the battery and it works fine...dunno what to do now but off to buy a relay etc so i can wire the fan direct and at least cool the car so i can use it...

Any other suggestions greatly appreciated untill i solve this it will have to stay on switch/relay for now:(

have you checked the fuse in fuse box beside battery one in there controls fans. I think its 20 amp white. I had this go on my old 2.5. Hope this helps.

Yes i have i checked all fuses with a meter whilst i was intially trying to run the rad fan tests.

I have also another job to do now which is cleaning the idle control valve keeps stalling when i stop at lights etc..reading up tell me to dismantle and clean this along with the pipes.

it may sound wierd but either pull the fuse out and/or replace it you may be srprised to find it works.
