Electric Cooling Fans

Recommended Posts

I have a couple of quick questions if you guys could help:

1) should the two cooling fans ALWAYS come on when you turn on the A/C (regardless of the outside temp)?

2) along the same lines, don't they always run for a few minutes when the car is first started, again regardless of the outside temp?

I had to replace the relay box behind the driver side headlight and need to troubleshoot some wiring. I'm just trying to verify how the fans should operate and then I'll work my way back.

Also, the box has labels for THREE fans. Anyone know why that is?

thanks,

Bob

In the five years I have owned my 92 LS I have heard the electric fans come on only twice, and only in very hot weather idling in traffic with the AC on. The 98 GS will cycle the fans briefly under the same conditions a bit more frequently. They only start up when needed.
