Where is the thermostat situated on the Laguna, 1.6 RT sport. recently overheating, fan kicking in but staying on when engine is switch off, this drained the battery, now battery dead. Can anyone advice on other solutions, or causes of this problem. Cheers.

hi jackie motor mechanic level 1 student thermostat on laguna almost certain coneected to the impellor fan housing directly behind the radiator if cannnot locate a temporary solution is bybass it by attaching the wires of the fan directly to the battery this is slightly inconvenient way to do it as the fan still works when engine is turned of but pop bonnet disconnect wire from the battery safe way of not overheating saving surrounding gaskets fro warping hope This helps if you dont mind let me know if it does cheers
