Hello, coming home the other night in my 96 civic d16y8. Its a built turbo blah blah. Any ways it overheated in bad traffic. I caught it early no problems. I tested the radiator fan. I jumped it with some wire below the distributor and nothing came on. Also wired the radiator fan motor plug to the battery and couldnt get it to come on. I figured bad motor.

Heres my question. I have a mishimoto radiator and guessing fan/motor. I need to replace the motor of the fan. I see how it unbolts and and thats not hard. Its a flim fan. So do I need a specialty motor? Or can I just get one from a parts store? Thanks for the help!

 

afaik they sell the whole fan as one item vs just the motor at least that's how mine is. pics ?

 

Ill try pictures in the morning. Its late haha but if I have to replace the whole thing does anywhere sell the slim fan locally? I dont want to have to wait when buying from online.

 

I don't know where you live so I can't say lol check your local aftermarket part retailers if there are any in your area.

 

Cincinnato ohio, but does anyone sell one locally? Like a parts store. I know there are some speed shops by me but theyre all closed on sundays.

 

Also will an oem fan normally fit? Thanks
