Thanks for the reply. That's helpful! I'm not very experienced with car repairs, so I'm not sure where to check for faulty connections to the fan. Could you give me a bit more guidance?

Alright, understanding your experience level is key. Given your limited experience and the car's age, I'd strongly suggest taking it to a reputable workshop. It does sound like a defective cable or plug connection and tinkering without proper knowledge could make things worse. Think of it like this: you wouldn't try to rewire your house without electrical experience, would you? Better safe than sorry, especially with a hybrid system.

Thanks a lot for the advice. I appreciate the analogy, it makes sense! I've taken it to a mechanic, and you were spot on – turns out it was a faulty cable connection to the electric fan. They've sorted it out, and the total repair bill came to 95€ Thanks again!

Overheating in a Grandland X sounds familiar! I had a similar problem a while back. Is the fan running at all? Sometimes it can be something as simple as a faulty connection. Think of it like a light switch that's gone bad - power's there, but the light won't turn on because the connection is dodgy.
