With the AC turned on, both fans work as they should.

But with the AC off, the main cooling fan does not engage.
We suspect this may be a ground issue as the ECU is using a simulated ground as opposed to an actual ground.

Looking at the wiring diagram, there is a control box in the system, but I cant find any info on it.

I have a UK 1996 model, so I have two coolant sensors on the block , seems not all models have the sensor on the thermostat housing that I have.

Any help advice welcome, also should the fan come on after ignition off while the engine is cooling??? my car has spent the last 2 years being restored, uprated so I cant recall.

The control box is a timer, keeps the fan running key off if the temp is high. Pull off the connector for the main fan switch (at the thermostat housing, rear of block) and put a paper clip in to jumper the two terminals- the fan should come on.
