Hi guys,
Does anyone know how to fix a non-functional engine cooling fan on a 3SGE motor? Or even what could be causing it not to come on when the engine gets hot? Sick of using the interior heating to cool the engine down when in traffic! Cheers

The sensor in the radiator is more like a thermal switch then a sensor. It provides a ground signal when the temp is within range, then opens (breaking the circuit, triggering the relay, and turns the fans on) when the temp goes beyond. So if you unplug the wire going to this 'sensor', the fans should turn on - if they dont, then a new sensor won't fix anything.
The CDS and RDI fuses are in the engine comp fuse block, as are the relays. All of the 6th gen's use the same fuse boxes. so this should help: http://www.celicatech.com/imagearchive/bgb...95ewd/95ewd.htm -------------------- Scott
