    New radiator fan doesn't turn on

    Hey

    Ok my old fan broke into pieces...damage my radiator.

    I replaced the radiator fan and radiator.


    Now the fan doesn't turn on.

    I turn on A/C and only condenser fan turn on. the other doesn't

    I double check the connector and it is good

    Could it be the relay that is broken?

    Put 12V from the battery to the fan leads first to make sure the fan works, then troubleshoot from there. Turning on the A/C won't automatically fire up the cooling fan. That is controlled based on engine temp, you live in NYC so that fan may not turn on till next Spring

      Turning on the AC does force both fans to run.

      If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

        yes, this is true.

        You may want to see if there is a fuse for the radiator fan.

          My bad, I'm completely wrong. Yeah, check the fuses first (#15 and 39 under the hood, both are 15A) , followed by the relay, fan motor, and A/C diode last. Page 16-107 in the FSM.

          I was going off how EF fans are controlled from memory and posted before I checked. Sorry for the b.s. info.

            oop. I just saw cooling fan fuse. 20A right above cooling fan relay.


            the fuse is good.

              Fuse and Relay is good


              I switch the fuse with other 20a

              and I switch relay with the power windows.

              Power windows work with the cooling fan relay.


              I think i got a bad fan. I'm going to jump the fan to the battery and see if it will run.

                That's what I was going to suggest... give it direct power and see if it runs.

                  I jump it directly to the battery and it turns on!

                  What is next?

                    Are you sure that you have the right fuse? It should be a 15A, not a 20A. The locations are #15 and 39 in the under hood fuse box.
