Subject: Fans and temps. by Fluff on 2010/6/7 21:54:35 Anyone know how I can I test the engine (radiator) cooling fans and temp sensors?. I scoured the FSM, gone round in circles and nearly disappeared up my own .!!!. The manual mentions using the Tech 1, which I dont have. One fan (drivers side) kicks in at 109c, which the manual says is correct, but I cant get the 2nd fan to start which I believe should come in above 115c. If I disconnected the first fan at the relay, how hot can I let the engine climb to (for testing the 2nd fan) without damage?. IIRC both fans should run when the A/C is on, unfortunately I cant test that because Im still trying to locate parts to repair the A/C. Im not sure if this is related, so Ill put it in the same thread in case:- what should to oil temp run at mine used to run mid-to-high on the gauge, now it seems to only operate in the very low portion of the gauge (but it does move fractionally) |
