    I assume they are mate, I'll have to ask mark.

    The new ones are working fine but we out of summer now and can't really test it in the conditions where they failed last time. I.e towing in 30 degrees for hours, etc.

    Over heating issue, nothing to do with the fans itself is my mechanical answer *LMAO*

    overheating of the motors on the fans or the vehicle engine?

    It is not the vehicle engine overheating that's for sure because it was running cool as a cucumber prior to fail.

    Vehicle engine / radiator

    If the motors on the fans were working with no issue when he first got them and only burnt out on a hot day I would lean towards them not being the issue to start with.

    And your cool as a cucumber was only on a needle gauge which means nothing....

    But as I said I'm no mechanic......will be interesting to find out there results

    It has nothing to do with the electronic motors on the fans? They are fine mate...

    It's the plastic fan itself which has let go from the motor spigot nut moulded into the fan core.
