man this saved me! thank you bro....... best video out there for this issue, straight to the point no nonsense!
This is a great video. I'm going to order the parts today. I hope this also fixes/energizes the power steering cooling fan. I read that they are tied together. Interestingly - not sure if it's coincidence or not- the AC also stopped working when the low speed was not working. Maybe this will energize the AC as well!! Thanks
Did the fix work for your ac? Have the same issue
Did the fix work i have the same problem?
@@Rubenchavez87 I chose to replace the fan with a new one. The reason is because if I retrofit the with a new resistor as shown in this video, it will not engage the Power Steering fan circuit. Also, it will still not engage the radiator fan when the AC is activated. I had to replace the AC clutch and magnet assembly because the stage 1 fan did not engage and the AC was overworked and overheated. By replacing the radiator fan and clutch, everything works well again. I bought the fan and ac clutch assembly on Amazon. Hope this helps.

thanks for the solution but the resistor get very hot when i am running air condition it smell bad i have to turn it off
HI!, Have you mounted the resistor to an aluminium surface to better dissipate the heat? Was it a quality resistor? I did not have such problems. Thank you!
Literally the entire thing How to beat Lewis Hamilton: cheat
Glad you got the joke
I applied this solution to my Mini today, and it seems to be working fine. Many thanks! However, the resistor is getting extremely hot, to the point where it burned the cable ties I used. I'm a bit concerned about its long-term durability. Have your resistors gotten just as hot? Has anyone experienced them burning? Where did you attach yours?
Glad it helped, the resistor will get warm of course but mine never got warm to that point. There's a aluminium mount close-by that you can mount the resistor to for heat dissipation.
As quick as possibile.🙂👍
If those steps don't work. Go to F1 2016 and be Nico Rosberg
I just worked on this. My fan was low speed only, no high speed. What I noticed after quite a bit of poking metering testing is that my fan was super low speed, as in it should have never spun this slow. Low speed on this cooling fan is fast enough to be easily heard when hood closed and your standing next to it, or even in it while engine is running. Low speed is just short of 10V. Sooooo not so much low speed. Also I don't believe there is a high speed. There is only one speed on mine. There is wiring for two speeds but the relay that sits in the same box as the resistor is not powered, as in it never switches. Now relay could be powered internally, but with no ground going to it at all, its chit out of luck. Fn beemers. At the end I think I just had a dirty contact that cleaned up with me plunging it in and out, and now it runs proper with no parts changed. 2006 cooper plain 194k miles. Also don't be this lazy, bumper cover comes off fairly easily, bumper reinforcement is even easier, then don't drain the coolant, undo the top hose, you will spill a bit, and you're in. It's no chevy but well damn, you don't want to do this again in 6 months because wires rotted out if you live in the salt belt.

Why does the air filter hose look like it’s mesh or some type it other material I looked at mine and was gonna replace it with a regular hose should I or no
If yours is the same as the one in the video it is the OEM part, I would keep it OEM. Intake systems are designed with a certain airflow in mind, unless you're comfortable with the maths behind that I wouldn't mess with it. Hope this helps!
I get nothing from the battery directly low or high or when turn on AC . Is there a way to test the motor without stripping the car down ?
If your motor doesn't run I'd assume it's not working, so that'd require taking apart and further investigating.
Does it have to be 100wat? I only find a 27 watt resistor on my local store
Maybe try buying it online, it has to be 100W.
From the new resistor you join the low fan and high fan together then join it to the high fan wiring loom
Check the diagram @ 1:54
My Mini is a 2002 model Mini cooper One 1.6. My low speed fan is also not working. I already bought a new resistor. I read this only works in post 2003 models....Now I an dissapointed. Is there a way I can make this work on my 2002 Mini ? What is the difference between pre and post 2003 models ? Kind regards from the Netherlands
This only works on cars with the 3 PIN fan plug unfortunately.
Just put rhe IA in 0%
I did exactly what you did and my low speed fan still doesn't work.
Are you sure you wired it correctly? You have bought a defective resistor, or there maybe other problems with your fan that are not the resistor itself.
@João Ferreira the high speed fan works perfectly.... and i also tested it from the battery to the fan plug before and after the resistor..... the low speed fan doesn't want to work
Joāo...want to make sure that you completely cut the low speed wire amd tape off. You then splice a new resistor into the Hi speed (thick) wire...the result is the low speed begins to operate? Yes?
Yes, just like the diagram @ 1:54. The wire capped off is left out of this diagram.

Ciao non riesca a capire dove si mette il collettore blu . E quale filo devo tagliare
Please check 1:54
I don’t get where the second point of the resistor goes…???
High speed fan wire.
@@joaopmf ok thanks i imagined. i hope this will help others
Great solution to an otherwise lengthy and expensive fix. My 2005 MINI R52 cooling fan works perfectly now. Thank you also for including the links to source the parts!
Glad I could be of help! Hope your Mini stays strong! 😁
So I am confident that the low speed fan issue is present on my mini. If I start the car and run the AC the high speed fan seems to come on right away. Other than testing it that way, I have not tried connecting wires to the battery to see if just the low speed fan is working as intended. My first question is there any other way to test that the low speed fan is working? My next question may be silly (I am not a car guy), but is the low speed fan necessary to have outside of the summer months when it's hot and the AC is running? Be honest with me here, is this something you truly need? Great video, thank you!
I believe these cars only use the fan when idling while standing still because I never really heard it come on otherwise, if the low speed fan isn't working it has always the high speed fan as a back-up, but it's good to have both just in case.
@@joaopmf I will grab some wire and see if I can't give it a test! Do you know if any wire will work? Or does it have to be the Pearly one that you linked? Thank you!!
Anything that can pass 12V to that will work
i needed this video but couldnt see anything or understand it
Check 1:54 for a very basic wiring diagram.
Omg. I didn't know that Nico Rosberg was the 2016 FIA Formula one World Driver Champion and that he beat 7 time FIA Formula one World Driver Champion Sir Lewis Hamilton in equal machinery. He should really talk about that someday.

Your editing is so good I wanna cry
I love all of the shows of knight rider especially I love Kitt and David Hasselhoff as Michael knight I just wish I had all of the dvd's shows of knight rider because I love all of the shows!
эх Майкл 😢
Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you 2016 FIA Formula one World Driver Champion Nico Erik Rosberg the guy that beated 7 times FIA Formula one World Driver Champion Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton in the same team. Oh and did I mention that 2016 FIA Formula one World Driver Champion Nico Erik Rosberg beated him in equal machinery?
I'm just a believer in the sacred word of 2016 FIA Formula one World Driver Champion Nico Erik Rosberg the gentlemen that beat 7 times FIA Formula one World Driver Champion Sir Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton in equal machinery.
Is that the 2016 FIA Formula One World Driver Champion Nico Erik Rosberg who beat 7 time Sir Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton on the same team.

Cool 😎
Alright mazepin maybe try braking earlier and stepping on the throttle gradually
Challenge accepted
Focus on your throttle and break foot
Will try, but you can’t fix lack of skillz 😂

Tyre temperatures or traction control
Lack of skill too 😂
