then try running a pos and neg straight from the battery just to test the fan. if it turns on from thatm then you know the problem is in the wiring.

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

- Wed Apr 08, 2009 12:24 am #108984 it does come on when ran to the battery... will it be ok if i rig it upt the the battery with a toggel switch???

- Wed Apr 08, 2009 3:29 am #109031 It will be ok with a toggle switch as a quick fix, but it needs to be fixed right. did you check the relay? ECT sensor?

- Wed Apr 08, 2009 3:30 am #109032 how do u check them?? i know were there are but dont know how to check them

- Wed Apr 08, 2009 4:16 am #109053 i did it like a year ago, so im a bit foggy. you just need to find the pinout of the relay, then use a jumper wire between those connections to see if the circuit is working properly.

Or you could go to the junkyard and just grab a bunch of relay's on a 5 finger discount.

and i think you can use an ohmmeter to test the ECT sensor.
