R52 Power Steering Cooling Fan Question
#1
#2
Hello,
Here is a thread with some more info on the power steering fan. The older original ones don't have the little built in fuse/ resistor. Newer ones do. They all get the newer one when replaced. We have some options here:

Thanks

You can buy a "bare" fan....and reuse the metal part....
Later 2005+ mini's had the fans screwed on...yours is likely rivited on...drill them out, and use 4 sheet metal screws to mount the new one....about 5 minutes...
IMO buy a fan with the box...mine was the same...bet the box is a thermal fuse of some types...early minis seem to have s FIRE issue...but changes in mid 2005 seemed to fix the issue....
