Cooling fan not working
My Grand Voyager was overheating, the RAC said that the 2 two cooling fans were not working. Is it likely that it is a switch problem or the whole fan units.
would any garage do or a specialist auto electrician?

Most likely to be the sensor/sender switch screwed into the block. You can test the fans by applying a current to them. If they work, then the fault is definitely the sensor/sender. Requires a special socket to unscrew it and you will need extra coolant to replace any you lose.
