I obviously didn't use the A/C. I had my father (mechanic) test it out and Aux fan is receiving electricity and all the wiring is good, but the fan motor was just dead. |

If you turn the car on, let it get to normal temp, then turn on the A/C, I believe the aux fan should just come on immediately. It may even come on directly with the a/c button on. Go out, open the hood and look in there. That would be a starting point.

Figured a new fan was cheap enough, and seemed to be a common fault, so took a punt. It paid off.

Also, if anyone is interested, apparently this is the correct battery for the keys. I bought a different one on amazon and the little pieces on the battery are not in the correct orientation so you must modify it. With the new battery, I followed the normal reprogramming and now the doors open via remote no problem.

Replaced a dead ccfl ballast. Had to modify the connections a bit but all is good now. I think the old one died prematurely because it had a bad connection and kept going on and off.

Tore apart a friends spare transfer case in preparation for a rebuild. Ordering a new chain and a seal kit.
Probably won't get started on the tear down of the x for a while though. Have to wait for parts and next weekend I have to do a timing chain job on a 7.
