My understanding of the temperature switch and there function:
When the underhood temperature of the car reaches a set degree the aux fan kicks on to keep the car cool, (if the temperature gets even hotter the fan kicks in too a second level?) when the temperature returns to a normal level the fan switches off.
My car
When my car overheated friday, then again on sunday my aux fan never came on, however it does work since when I turn my ac on it blows plenty of air.
My theroy
This leads me to belive my aux fan thermal switches do not work.
Is there any way to test them other than forcing my car to overheat then hoping they turn on?
I would like to have my electric fan run most of the time, aux fan run when nessecary, and engine not blow up.
switches, relays etc are still a little over my head. (Audio systems however are not go figure.)
