   Faulty temperature gauge sensor,the later mk2 saxo's the fan coming on is controlled by the ecu,which gets a signal from the temp sensor.on the thermostat housing btw.

   No, unlocking an ECU only prevents the immobiliser communicating with it.

   Test your fan out either by bridging the connector,or running a live direct from the fan to the battery.

   On the gauge, the fan usually kicks in between 1/2 and 3/4

    There aren't any free hanging connectors are there? Specifically around the thermostat area.
