Radiator/Fan Help
I just installed my fludyne radiator along with a new OEM thermostat.
Why wont my fans kick on? I know they are hooked up right because I have a switch connected to it and when i hit it they turn on.
The car has been idling for about 10 minutes and i drove it around the block. I dont want to drive it too far because I am running open exhaust.
Plus.....my top radiator hose is really hot, but the lower hose is not hot at all? what does this mean?

Re: Radiator/Fan Help (intekragsr)
maybe your aux. fan switch went bad? take the plug off the sensor (right by the
thermostat), and short it. If the fan comes on then maybe your switch is bad. If it doesn't come on, maybe your relay is bad.
Your upper radiator hose should only get hot after the thermostat opens... Since it is hot, then probably your switch is bad.
