overheating problem.
Hello everyone. My car has been overheating lately and its due to the fan not turning on when it needs to. I have checked the fuse for the fan and its fine. The fan only works sometimes. What could cause this? Please help its my daily. Thank you

Re: overheating problem. (C-West Civic)
Could be a bad motor, fan relay, thermostat, fan switch, radiator cap, etc. Change the small things first like thermostat and go from there.

Compression test is the other easy check. If coolant is leaking into the header, it would force more coolant to your overflow tank and then run low after long drives.
