Default Help. Cooling fan not working.

Hello s2ki.

So I realized that today by cooling fan was not working at all. I headed over to autozone where I bought fuses and replaced all the fuses that dealt wit hthe fan. after replacing the fuses still the fan was not working.

My questions to you guys are:

When I replace the fan, do I have to wait til the car fully heats up for the fan to start working or should the fan start up as soon as I turn the ignition on?

How difficult is it to swap out the cooling fan??


Im a bit of a noob so any help would be cool. Thanks

Are you sure the fan relay is plugged in? It's located in the engine bay under the driver's side fan. Do they still turn on when you turn on your ac?

I'st easy to disconnect the fan and hook it directly to 12 volts - easy test to see if it is the fan or not.

Just found out it's a burned relay and burned motor on one of the cooling fans. One of them is working. the driver side one isnt.
