ok so i had the prob of my fan not turnin on a couple of days ago, i was told that i could jus jump it at the thermostat housing to see if the fan works at all, well it turned on when i jumped the harness so i bought a new fan temp switch, but after replacing it today the car still runs hot, not too sure what it could be now, any suggestions would help

 

so the fan does run now, but still heats...or does the fan STILL not run?

 

the fan runs when u jump it at the thermostat housing, but during regular driving the motor gets hot an the fan doesnt turn on

 

ok so i just jumped the fan at the thermostat housing to double check an make sure it works an it came on, if i cant find the prob soon imma jus run the fan to a switch

 

i did the same thing a few months ago so my fan stays on constantly. Havent had any problems but someone told me i could burn up my fan motor?

well if i was to run it to a switch, i would leave it off on the freeway for sure cuz the car will not overheat on the freeway even with fan off,it would be more of a hassle to run it to a switch , but i need something at least temporarily so that my car doesnt overheat

 

also i read this somewhere already but when i felt the upper radiator hose it was hot but when i felt the bottom it felt cooler? dont remember what could be the cause of it, i already hooked up the fan to a switch for the time being until i find the prob

 

ok even after swithin the fan to a switch an keepin it on it still gets hot so that is still not the prob, tomorow i will replace thermostat and fuse relay to c if that helps

 

just get a switch, mount it, ground it, run the other wire to 54 on the relay, wire up terminal 56 and 30 to battery power, wire terminal 57 to (i think it's green) 12+ going to the fan....

much easier...
