Summary of the thread
A 2021 Renault Kadjar is experiencing engine overheating due to impaired electric fan operation. Diagnostics suggest the issue may be caused by a defective cable or plug connection. After checking fuses and relays, the problem was suspected to be within the fan motor circuit. Replacing the faulty cable connection resolved the overheating issue, restoring proper engine cooling.

The fan was not activating at all. I have checked the fuses and relays, and these appear to be in working order. I suspect a fault within the fan motor circuit itself. Did you check the electric motor?

Yes, my issue was very similar. I would advise you take it to a workshop. They identified it quickly and it was a faulty cable connection, as you also suspect. Replacing it solved the problem completely.

Thank you for the information. I have had the cable and plug connection replaced; the total repair cost was 95€. The engine cooling is now working as expected.

Hello! I have a Kadjar myself and I think I know what you are talking about. I had similar overheating issues a while ago. Was the electric fan not spinning at all, or was it running intermittently?
