Re: need help fans not working

Did you check the fusible link that supplies 12V power to the fan relays?

What temperature is the engine running at?

Re: need help fans not working

You really need to look at the information in the link Joe posted in post #2.

There is no fan switch. Fans are computer controlled by input from the coolant temp sensor in the water pump and a/c control inputs.
