Re: Help!

Check your fan switch and the wiring to it. I don`t know if yours is a 1 or 2 wire but they sometimes get burned through and the switch will not work. Sometimes the switch wears out and needs to be replaced. Verify with your shop manual that your fan switch is on the passenger side head and then check it and the wire.

Re: Help!

Also check your fan relays. Also if you turn your A/C on the fan should come on independent of the temperature sensing system.
