i have a 95 honda civic ex coupe.. 1.6 liter sohc vtec engine... my car has been overheating because the thermo switch is not kicking in when it's suppose to (*at least that's what i think it is*). what i want to do is put a switch from my fan motor into my car so i can switch the fan on when i'm sitting @ idle so it will cool my car down.. anyone have any instructions on how i may do that... your input is appreciated... thank you very much...

 

i am guessin that no one knows what to do... hrmm is there another place i can go to post this message or question?

 

Dude, why don't you try giving it more than 7 minutes.

 

So does your fan not turn on at all? If it doesnt why dont you go buy a new thermo switch and replace yours. It couldnt be that much.

 

 

just wire it constant so its always on when the car is on

 

thermostats aren't that expensive,get a safeguard thermostat,like $35 fro your local auto parts store

Bad idea. Just spring for the new thermostat...they ones that are being talked about are called failsafe thermostats. They fail open instead of closed.
