Ok this is driving me crazy :mad: :mad: . I recently was going to add a switch that allowed my fans to kick on whenever I wanted them too. I realized after I did it that it kicks on the A/C fan as well. I know that the IAC motor isn't working properly (one is on its way) but now whenever the car is sitting at idle and the fan kicks on it dies. As long as the fan is running the car will start up and die. I checked TPS, its fine. I recently removed all the vacuum lines according to taboospeedshop.com, I also flushed the radiator and removed the thermostat completly. The car doesn't overheat or anything. When the fan isn't running it runs like crap (do to the IAC) but when the fan kicks on it tries for a little bit then just dies not throwing any Codes either. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again.
