Radiator Fan

[Cb7Black9192]

So the guy that I purchased my 91 sedan from has some kind of right out there wiring job done to the car, we removed alot of the wires because they were wired to fog lights that I removed. But I believe that he also has some kind of wiring nut job done on the radiator fan and it no longer works, is there some way that I could direct connect the fan to my battery?

Are you sure your fan switches are working properly? There are 2, one in the thermostat housing, and one on the coolant neck on the front of the head next to the distributor.

Honestly I couldn't tell you, when I bought the car I bought it under the indication that the timing belt had skipped so it would be an easy fix, but when we got the head apart we found out that the crankshaft was cracked in half so the 2.2 was no good anymore, we swapped a 2.3 vtec from a 2000 accord coupe into it. Although I don't have a computer to run the Vtec atm

My car doesn't have any daytime running lights so I will be running headlights on all day, could I possibly wire the fan in with the headlights?

Nice to see a fellow Nova Scotian on here.
My car came from florida, but someone had added drl's to it. But the fan stopped working so buddy wired the fan up to the lights and took the fuse out of the drl thing. Now I gotta figure out where the fan connector goes. But yes, it is possible to hook up you're fan to the lights, but i'm thinkin it's gotta be hard on the fan.

Where abouts in Nova Scotia are you from? and yeah, I was talking to a buddy today and he said that maybe it would just be a better idea to wire it to the ignition so it came on as soon as the car is on and wouldn't shut off until it's off. It wouldn't draw to much power that way, I could add a killswitch to the circuit too

I understand what you are saying, fixing it properly would be the good way to go, but would it really be that hard on it?

i believe there is a fan relay on driver side front fender in engine bay..do it right.if the fan was made to stay on all the time it would

I will definetly look into this, thanks.

It would probablybe faster to fix it rather than wire up a relay.

The cooling fan timer unit mounted inside the car near the driver’s footwell could be causing an issue as well in terms of fan function. I’d check that too.
