Default no fans...

Did a little searching and got nothing. It's kinda a strange problem. My fans don't click on. I know stock honda is at half gauge. I hit about 3/4 and turn my car off. No leaks and fluid is fine. I put in a new, lower thermo. The motor shows that it is getting power. No blown fuses. Any help, or just drive very slow and to very close places? Thanx in advance.

Take you two wires. Connect them to the fan "prongs". Hold one on a ground and the other on the positive side of battery. See if it comes on.

And if the fans are good, what should he check?

I'm having the same problem. Fans don't come on, but the fans test good.

Already tried it. Click on fine. That and a test light is what confirmed that the fan motors work

If you wanted to go the easiest way you could just run new wire from the fan and plice into the the wire close to the fuses.
