Thank you for your input. No unusual noises so far. You are mentioning the fan motor relay and wiring harness - were your symptoms exactly the same? Did you fix the issue yourself or had to visit the workshop?

My symptoms were virtually identical: engine overheating due to a faulty electric fan. In my case, the relay was fine, but the connector to the fan motor showed signs of corrosion, leading to an intermittent connection. I attempted a temporary fix, but it ultimately required professional attention. Given the potential complexity, I would advise against extensive DIY repairs. I think it’s time for an expert to take a look at it.

Understood. I appreciate the confirmation and advice. Indeed, your experience mirrors mine closely. I'll take it to the workshop. It ended up costing me 95€, the cable or plug connection was defective.

I also drive an NX. I faced a comparable situation a while back. The overheating was indeed linked to the electric fan not functioning correctly. I would suggest you check the fan motor relay and the associated wiring harness thoroughly. A corroded connector can cause intermittent failures. Has the fan been making any unusual noises prior to this issue?
