water temp gauge and fan switch
I got an 91 Ef with a 94 gsr motor.
where do i hook up an electric water temp sender for my a gauge, and where is the fan switch. I want to run the fan all the time, but i cannot find the switch to modify it.

Re: water temp gauge and fan switch (Nightkidef9)
Its the single wire sensor under the distributor, that feeds the cluster... The fan switch should be right in the waterneck past your thermostat, Why do you want your fan always on? Your engine needs to be at its proper operating temp.. You shouldnt have any problems if your fan turns on and off with the factory sensor, Just how Honda intended

your fan will stay on as soon as the key is put on the on position

Re: water temp gauge and fan switch (Suck my DX)
Huh?That's not how to make the fan stay on, nor is it how to connect the temp sensor. The yellow/green wire goes from the cluster to the sensor, opposite is ground.
See page 16-70 in the CRX Workshop Manual

At the Fan switch - you've got 2 wires, just put a paperclip or piece of wire jumping the 2 pins in that plug. wrap it with electrical tape so the wire doesn't fall out, then the fan will come on whenever the key is in the On position.
4thgenhtch is correct though, if your fan comes on when your car gets warm - it's good, leave it like that. If you're having overheating problems, either you have a leak or blown H/G or your thermostat is stuck.
