Hey guys, I guess the bad alternator wasnt enough, now my radiator is not coming on. I checked all fuses and they are good.
I'm thinking it could be the thermastat but, that is going to be a pain to get to
What could it be?
Please help thanks

 

When you say the radiator is not coming on are you referring to the fans ? The car needs to be at operating temperature to have the fans come on . One fan is the A/C condensor fan that will come on if the A/C is on .

 

Is your car overheating?

 

Fan switch maybe

 

yes the rad fan is not coming on. i got the car up to running temp. radiator was really hot. still doesnt witch on. where is the fan switch on the car??? is it that plug on top? not overheating but i can smell the rad fluid when im driving.

 

If you can smell coolant, look for leaks. Make sure these plugs are connected.

 

Bottom of the rad. on the driver side

 

This is what a fan switch looks like.

 

If you changed the alternator, I would check the wiring on the fan switch first to make sure you didn't break, slash or pull the wires out while doing the maintenance. I have never seen this happen but something is telling me to look into it......

 

First step in troubleshooting something electrical, "make sure it is plugged in".
