Thank you for this excellent video. The very hot weather put up the tyre pressures on my Astra and I had to reset the readings. The owner's manual for the Astra is an absolute disgrace. Nowhere does it say that you can scroll down under Settings to Vehicle and Safety. I have had 3 issues already where the manual was so vague that I had to resort to Google and RU-vid to solve issues. That shouldn't be necessary.

I've had this same fault before on another 1.2 (108) and changed the fan resistor module which solved it. However on this car, the cooling fan is still not coming on. I've put direct power on to the fan which comes on. I've checked the loom connector and there's power there. The engine light has gone off, when I rescan the fault is still on ecu but won't clear. Coolant light came on so I stopped & the tank had coolant. When I opened it, it was like a jacuzzi 🤯. Any tips & help would be appreciated thanks.
