More stupid duratec questions (2021 360S): single- or dual-speed fan?


Recommended Posts

Is the fan a single- or two-speed fan?  I notice the electrical diagram shows two drops for high and low speed, but my fan has only two wire connection and as far as I can tell it's wired up to the cooling fan relay directly, which I assume the former ECU controls/ed with a simple on/off.  As in, with the ECU disconnected I can ground the correct relay pin and the fan comes on and sounds fairly loud, and I don't see any obvious second circuit for a higher speed.

 

Car is a 2021 Caterham 360S (Duratec) with new electronics.  On OEM electronics it behaved "normally" as in "fan cycles at idle" between 90-95C" and I feel like it was very much on/off but I did not test it before I ripped out the old ECU and harness.

What do you have a diagram of exactly? Is one of the two fan leads grounded or have B+ all the time or with the key on?

Page 216 in the 2015 manual has this (attached).  It shows two plugs so I'm guessing there's a second fan in some version of the car?  My fan definitely only plugs into one of those two.

Looks like two separate fans. Would be odd to have four wires on one fan.
