Radiator Fan Removal Instructions

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Blower motor

The radiator cooling fan is fixed to the radiator itself via a plastic support frame. The first pin to remove is located right at the centre, beneath the bonnet latch; once this pin and its bracket are removed, unscrew the two side pins near the coolant reservoir, and the other two located laterally, near the outlet hose; at this point, disconnect the fan's power connector, free the cable from the cable guides, and extract the plastic frame complete with the electric fan.

Install the roof bar kit as shown in the video with the bars calibrated according to the width of the car. Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the car's original roof rails. Once the width of the anchoring brackets is adjusted, tighten the bolts with the butterfly nut (if a lock is present) until fully secured to the roof rails.
