Seat Ibiza Overheating Problem

I am experiencing overheating issues with my 2017 Seat Ibiza, gasoline engine, with 91985 km. The symptoms point to an impaired electric fan, and I suspect a defective cable or plug connection is the likely cause. Any thoughts?

I had a similar experience with my Volvo, though a different model. The engine was overheating, and the temperature control seemed off. Have you checked the fan clutch? It might be a contributing factor to the cooling system malfunction. I was quite frustrated when I experienced that.

Interesting, the fan clutch... I hadn't considered that. Could you elaborate on how you diagnosed the fan clutch issue in your Volvo?

Well, in my case, the Volvo's fan clutch was visibly damaged. However, a defective cable is also a common culprit, I had the same issue with my previous car. Given the cost you mentioned, I would suggest visiting a workshop to avoid damaging the engine.

I appreciate your insights. It appears the issue was indeed a faulty cable connection to the radiator fan, as suspected. The repair cost me 95€. Thanks again!
