Looks like the same plug I got shorted aswel mate. Maybe just muck in my terminals, I'll have a look tomorrow.

Cheers for the heads up mate

Just out of interest if you disconnect yours (the bridging between the terminals on the plug) does your car still start ok??

yh mate mine runs perfectly with out it except the fan is on constant from when the ignition is turned on! i only done the bridge last week as i just wasnt bothered before as cars off the road because of brakeing problem and lack of funds to get her on the road atm

Just seen the pics mate. Looks good. My car is registered as green on logbook, but now it's been re-sprayed a candy purple. You don't see many green ones around now tho

Maybe one of the sensors in the thermostat housing (possibly coolant temp) as I think this can sometimes trick the ecu into thinking the car is overheating and keep the fan on.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong
