anyone have pics of temp sending unit loacation? also my cooling fans are not coming on at all, not even if i turn on the ac, any ideas? thermostat? fan relays? haven't had the car long so i haven't investigated to much yet.

 

Temperature sensor between the 6th and 8th cylinders on the passenger side of the engine block. That SHOULD cure your problem.

 

If the fan is not coming on with the a/c, I'd check the fan by applying 12v directly to it - the fans should run with a/c regardless of the temp of the coolant.

 

test with 12V directly to fan first to make sure its still good,

if it is good then your Fan switch would be on the Pass side between 6 and 8 as stated above

your temp sending unit is irrelevant because its sole purpose is to drive the temp gauge in the car, and that is located on driver side between 1 and 3

just wanted to clear up what everything was so if you go to a part store you end up with the right part and not something you dont need

im gonna bet its either a dead fan motor,wire short,Relay, or a bad ground and not the sensor seeing as it does not turn on with the AC at all

 

does it matter if the AC is charged?

 

it shouldnt, i had a buddy that had a 305 TPI and he ripped his AC out all together and his fan still came on when it was suppose to, dont know if he had to ground a wire or not though

 

fan switch plug crumbled to pieces when i grabbed it, where can i get a new plug to wire in?

 

Stealership, or JY - maybe ebay

 

Another member told me advaced auto carries the connector, dont know if u have to order it online or not
