2G Should I have power here?

[OptimusBlaine]

I’m having trouble with one fan coming on. The A/C fan works fine but I can’t get the other one to come on with the coolant temp sensor. With the key on I don’t have any voltage at my pink fuseable link #7.

Is this a 2g? Fuseable link #7 should have constant battery voltage at all times. Either the link is blown or you've got a broken wire under that fusebox.

Yes. It is 97 turbo gst. I pulled the link out and tested the space and there’s very very little voltage. The link is good.

The guy that had the car before threw a bunch of money on parts and things . So there’s new coolant, thermostat, radiator cap, coolant temp sensor, new water pump , new Megan radiator, new mishimoto fans.

Remember to disconnect one battery terminal before lifting up that fusebox. Hopefully he wired up those 2 wire mishimoto fans correctly (on the DSM's 4 wire connectors) and that wasn't the reason a wire melted under the fusebox. You should check how he wired them.

It was… the one fan was pinned wrong… I had to re-pin the connector.

Grrr. Okay so I have power at the fuseable link apparently I guess I didn’t check it right or what… but I have power at my relays and my relays all work. I can jump the relays and the fan comes on.. so I’m thinking it’s somewhere coming out of the ecu or maybe the temp sensor something’s wrong.

Most likely the 2 wire (not 1 wire one) engine coolant temp sensor.

It’s got a brand new coolant temp sensor

I think I am going to just wow o the relays together and put them on a switch for now. But…. I’m wondering how much this will affect emissions and me smogging it here in California. One day maybe I’ll come across a dsm link

Well it's possible you have a bad ECU that's not turning the fans on. Are you running the factory ECU?

Here's when the factory 4 wire fans are supposed to turn on:

Here's the correct way to wire in 2 wire fans:

2G - fans running all the time?

hey every one im running the dual flex-a-lite fans on my 2g I have tried to connected them every way I know and they have never worked:confused: I still drive the car but not far the gauge reads normal but the engine gets really hot and so does my radiator im assuming its because the fans...

And here's a clever way I came up with to override control of the fans (or let the ECU control them):

2G - Cooling issue, plus wiring the fans up

First off my thermostat housing has all new sensors (2) car starts drives fine. The radiator fan will not kick on what so ever. I have checked my thermostat, the relays, and fuses. Any one have any insight on how to correct my fan from not turning on. OR does anyone know which wire on the fan is...
