Customer: I have a 2002 Jaguar 3.0 X-type with 52,000 miles on it. The car is overheating when stopped but, when driving down the road it is fine. I have noticed the fans are not running when stopped. I have checked all the connections and everything seems to be plugged in fine...?

Hello and welcome to Just answer.com, Super mechanic here. About your vehicle.

There has been a service campaign for that type of concern. Here is what it states.

Campaign - Cooling Fans Inoperative

XT303-S932

X-TYPE

DATE 01/03

MODEL
2002-03 MY
X-TYPE VIN
C00294-C91719

Overheating - Cooling Fans Inoperative - Replace Module Prior To Retailing - Service Action S932

This Service Action Applies to Vehicles That Have Not Been Retailed

 

Issue:

The cooling fan module on X-TYPE vehicles may fail under certain circumstances. There are various root causes but the design and quality of the printed circuit board within the cooling fan module are the most significant. The NAND gate used in the circuit is detective causing multiple failure modes, this can result in high engine temperature and overheating due to the cooling fans not operating.

 

A change has been implemented in production from VIN C91720. On these vehicles a 'Philips' printed circuit board has been used that has a modified voltage spike protection strategy.

 

Action:

To prevent customers from experiencing this issue, install the latest specification cooling fan module on 2002-03 MY X-TYPE vehicles within the above VIN range that have not been retailed.

PROCEDURE

1. Install new cooling fan module
