Radiator Fan Question / Diagram Request.
Ok, I have always had a problem with the radiator fan. It never used to turn on, i hard wired it to turn on automatically when the car turns on. I know this isn't the best thing to do, but I never really had the time to fix it. A few months ago i did a b16a swap into my crx dx and it is still not turning on. I replaced the relay, the fan does work, i built myself a little wire jumper that plugs in whare the relay used to be. Now that I did the swap i tried to hook it back up and it still doesn't turn on, Could it still be the thermoswitch that turns it on and off? That would have probably been fixed when i swapped engines. I am thinking it is probably the wiring from the switch to the relay, but I am not quite sure whare the switch is that turns the fan on, does anyone have a diagram of it?
It is easy to test if it is something other than the switch. all the switch does is complete the circuit between its two pins when the coolant reaches a certain temperature, so all you have to do is unplug it, and use something metal to bridge the two connections on the wiring side. if the fan turns on, it is the coolant temp sensor. if it doesnt, it is something else.
