my suggestion would be to book your car into a reputable garage who can carry out a full diagnostics check and report. the fan on these vehicles is switched via the ECU so that would be the only way to check it out. good luk

A very common problem on Focuses is the engine coolant fan resistors on the radiator cowling , not the ECU .Car is probably scrap by now as post was 7 yrs ago !!
