overheating problem pls help

Post by chucky245 » Fri Apr 22, 2011 2:40 pm

Well my car has been over heating for sometime now and don't know the reason. The problem is that the fans do not turn on their own. I've tried buying a new relay plug for radiator fans and same problem. Its weird because the fans both turn on only when I have the A\C on.. and allows the engine to cool. If anybody knows the problem it would be great. Im going to the junk yard tomorrow so if I can get an answer asap it would be awesome thnx. By the way im new here so nice to meet you all. My name is ismael but you guys can call me ish.

He's right could be that u have a bad wire somewere that messing with the fan. What I would do is go through all the wires to make sure that there isn't a bad wire some were. I hope it help man.
If everything seems to be in control, you're not going fast enough.

hmm ill check it out and see if that's the problem. But I don't think so because both fans turn on just fine when the a/c is on.. who knows I think it might be a bad connection with the relay maybe I gotta replace the whole relay box if its an internal problem or it can be the sensor but don't know for sure lol.

Yeah I believe it is. Like someone mentioned above it can be a bad wire or the whole relay box that would need to be replaced. Start off by replacing the relay fuse and see of that fixes it. I remember reading somewhere that it can also be the PCM sending a bad signal. Or if your tight on money you can always cut off the wire for the fans and connect it somewhere else where there's power so it turns on whenever u start the car and shuts off when u turn the car off. Only problem is that the fan will be on all the time when the car is running.

Get off our site bitch no one cares about your stupid jersey. As far as wiring you may have a wire with rub off in which case it may be grounding out I would check the wiring definitely and go from there.
