ok. my fan isnt coming on. and yet another possible cause of my cars neverending overheating festival... just hope i havent fudged my car up completely yet. i discovered that my fan isnt turning at all, and i cant seem to find a fuse or a relay for it. is it inline?, if so, where is it? i'm going to check that before i test te fan itself.

your IRCM (behind the right headlamp) may be shot. It turns on and off the fan.

Try supplying some power directly to the fan to see if it works.

WOW this car has some issues. to check if you relay is working. the wire harness coming from the fan motor there should be a disconnect, get some wires that you can use to test the fan. find the ground wire on the fan side of the harness, should be black with a brown stripe and put that to your battery ground. and then find the low or high speed wire and put it to the positive post on the battery. MAKE SURE YOU CLEAR OF THE FANS AT THIS POINT. hopefully your fans will come on eliminating the possibility of a bad fan motor....
