THM 08-31-2006, 09:28 AM http://www.audiworld.com/tech/eng.html I am trying to look at this one and check if my motor work Kris Hansen 08-31-2006, 09:38 AM It's unusual for the aux fan to not run with the AC on.

I wonder if you either have an air pocket in the cooling system, causing the gauge sender to read high, or causing the fan sensors to read low. The belt driven fan works off of heat from the radiator, so it either doesn't work, or, it's not hot enough to turn on. to test the motor, just apply +12v to the RED wire, and -12v to the BROWN wire, on the side that leads to the fan. Ensure that the fan blades can turn freely before you do this. THM 08-31-2006, 10:25 AM Connected fan to the battery and it doesn't work belt driven fan works fine so maybe you know were I can get it cheap:) Could be the cause of heating up old thermostat or water pump because car has 90k And water pump is making clicking sound on 1000rpm something like trrrrrt This weekend I am going to change both belts water pump thermostat tensioner and both rollers so I want to include fan also Kris Hansen 08-31-2006, 10:44 AM |
