my radiator fan still wont come on, somebody mentioned that he had put his on a switch, if anybody knows how to do this please let me know. thanks alot.

 

disconnect the connector on the coolant sensor and put a switch inbetween the two pins. (put a wire on each pin and run them to a switch inside your car). easy breezy lemon squeezy.

 

ok thanks a lot man, but how long do you have it on for and when do you turn it on, im sure it wouldnt hurt to have it on as long as the car is on, but, just thought id ask


and this might be dumb but does it drain the battery at all

 

also this is a d series 92-95 civic and i dont c any pins its just like a one prong on the sensor and a thing ti plugs into, did you maybe mean the sensor on the plug on the fan or the plug(sensor) on the block

 

I had a switch running on my CRX. I would put the fan on when I left and turned it off when I got out of the car. You really dont need it on that whole time but I did it anyways.

 

maybe the fan doesnt come when the ignition is off?

 

i used my incar underdash fuses for all my powering needs

pretty ghetto but it works

 

make a switch?

 

I'd hardwire it.. just put a paperclip on the fan switch connector. Ya in the mornings it takes a little bit to get warm, but it stays nice throughout the day.

Btw, a switch wont keep the fan on if the ignition is off.

 

I got a question for you are you looking to make the switch a quick fix or a modification because if it is a quick fix it would take you less time to find the problem then to run the wires. First try running the car with the AC or hearter on and see if the fan comes on then if not follow back from the fan and jump the first senson that you come to if that fixes your problem then you have to get a 10 senson from auto zone if not keep following the power all the way.
