Fan relays
Fan relays
Does anyone know where all of the fan relays are for our cars. Ever since I pulled the A/C the freakin fan wont shut off unless I disconnect it and a few people said I needed toground a relay but I have no idea where those are.
Thanks

Don't listen to those guys. Your relay's fine.
On the hard line you removed from the passenger side's main frame rail, there was a sensor. This is the "high pressure A/C" sensor... well, not sensor, it's a "switch". When the pressure becomes very high in the a/c lines, the switch opens, and the fan kicks on.
So take that connector, and put a jumper wire inside to connect the two pins. Tape it up, and you're good to go.
Side note: Looks like a real easy spot to put a fan switch on, eh?

Well, if you never disconnected anything, then disconnect that sensor on the hard line that's bolted to the passenger side's main frame rail, and connect the two terminals with a jumper. This worked for my a/c, but I have the entire system pulled and disconnected, except for the a/c evaporator against the firewall. (I needed something to plug that heater/evap box hole! I don't really feel like digging in and putting a heater-only box in there; plus, I've never seen one around here.)

Right now I have that hole covered with Duct tape
