thats you problem then
The ECT sensor gives the cooling fans ground at a certain temp so that they come on

 

is there any way i can override that, other than hardwiring

can you run a t connector? it worked for my oil temp...dont know about the water temp tho.... i just wired in a manual switch so i can turn it off and on.

 

i tried a t tap, for the water temp wire and it made the autometer read wrong and mess up....
