Which fan is A/C fan.

[JMiller]

Not 100% sure which fan is the A/C. I think its the one with the plastic housing. Am i right, need to know.

Thanks

If you're standing infront of you're car looking into the engine bay it's the fan on the right.

OK, so i was wrong its the one with the metal housing. Are the plugs the same for both of them

Thanks

No I believe they are not.

But there is a tech thread on here showing how to take your a/c fan and turn it into a slom version radiator fan. Search for it.

 

[JMiller]

Yea i need to search for it (or if someone has the link they can post it) cause i need the fan on the right(metal housing) to be the main fan because i removed the fan on the left, it was hitting my intercooler pipe(until i can get a slim fan)

Are you driving the car without the main fan?

 

[JMiller]

No i just took it out today, and wasn't sure which one was what. Anyone find that link to make the A/C fan the main fan yet cause I'm still looking.

Thanks

Follow this guide except you dont have to install a toggle switch. Just run a 16 gauge wire from the engine fan relay to the ac fan relay and what will happen is the ac fan will cut on when the engine fan is supposed to come on. In actuality both fans would come on but since you dont have the engine fan, only the ac fan will come on.

Thanks. This is just a temporary fix until i can get some slim fans when it warms up.

Are you actually searching or just waiting to be hand fed? Regardless, here's some spare change, now get a job.

OK i decided to plug the a/c fan into the plug for the main fan. When i turn the A/C on the fan comes on for about 10 sec then cuts off. So i was wondering since the main fan comes on with the A/C fan, did i turn the A/C fan into the main fan by plugging it in the main fan plug?

That ac fan is actually on my car because we did not have enough room for the main fan to fit with the 50 trim. All you have to do is put the ac fan in the place of the main fan, it plugs right in and functions just as the main fan, except it is kinda a slim fan. If you have any questions pertaining f\to the fit of it you can pm me becuase it is still on my car and no overheating issues so far.

Thats exactly what i did except i left it on the right side. Thanks
