forum.audiv8.com Foren English Audi V8 Forum G62 OK but out of order ???

Hallo Leute !!!

89 V8 89.
The electric fan never turn in "OFF" or "ECON" Klima Modes , the temperatur climb up to 100/ 105 °C in traffic jam.

The only way to obtain that the electric fan turn ( then all the time, also when the motor is cold) is to set the Klima Steuergerate ON

VAG 1551: NO problem !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Klima Test: ERROR 09 on channel 01: G62 open or short circuit.
I did change the G62.
It dont change anything

What happen please? Is anybody here who has the problem ??

Bonjour Fred,

Audi did not include the G62 coolant temperature switch until much later. My V8 is a June 1990 and does not have this switch. According to the repair manual, the Klima system will 'guess' what the value should be, based on other readings if the G62 is not present.

Here is a link to a website that might help if it is a Kilma problem:

I think your issue might be a problem with the engine cooling system, not with the Kilma however. If this is true, try the troubleshooting steps here:
