My radiator fan is not turning on and I have exactly the same amount of coolant in resovoir that I did 3 weeks ago. Where is fan switch? I heard I can unplug it too short it and see if its the switch or fan relay...fuse is fine. Any other reasons I have the same amount of coolant? Obviously not being used. Thanks ahead.

its on the back of the thermostat housing. basically just follow your lower radiator hose to where it connects to the motor. theres a connecter right there. thats it.

ok...so not fan switch....fuse is fine..only option left is fan relay.....i unhooked fan switch to short circuit to see if that was the problem and fan still didnt come on..i assume fan relay is the culprit. any more input would be much appreciated. Thanks.

you tested the fan itself right? also its ideal for your coolant levels to stay generally the same. If its getting lower and lower then it means you are burning it up or its leaking somewhere.

oh ok...thanks...this is my first vtec motor as well as honda...im still learning...how would i test fan?

just unplug the fan clip and run a power wire and ground to it to see if they come on. it doesnt matter which is which just put power and ground to it and if the fan is working itll run.
