You need to change the sensor that controls the fan.

Re: Radiator Fan

Either a relay or a coolant sensor.

Just replace the relay with a jumper. It is in the engine bay fuse box. You have to connect the top right and bottom left ones I think. If you are standing over the PS fender that is.

Re: Radiator Fan

Pocket the relay at the junkyard, and swap it in. Actually take a few, since they tend to go.

Re: Radiator Fan

Careful with wiring it so the fan stays on at all times. Did that in a crx and the car never gets warm (for occupants) anymore and the engine never warms up. Replaced the right sensor and attached it correctly and now all is well.
