Questionfound super dead battery in van before leaving for church tonite.
Put charger on and radiator fan runs like wide open. Before hooking up the
charger, the radiator fan was not running at all because the battery was so
dead,
but I could hear another fan running slowly someplace in the engine compartment
tried to disconnect wire to fan at the fan , got the retainer plastic clip out
but wire jack will not slip offof white plastic piece on fan,
Afraid to put too much force on it because it may break fan connector
Question: Did you ever take your fan off?
Should I just drive the connector off?
Do you have any idea what module may be bad?
AnswerHi Ralph,
The fan is controlled as far as the power to it is concerned by a relay that is mounted on the frame, I believe below the left side headlight housing. It is a "solid state" device and to be cooled it has to be external to the usual relay box setting. You can probably find it by following the fan motor wires that come from it. Just replace that relay and you should solve the problem.
I am sorry to be so slow in responding to your question. It was put in the "pool" after a long delay so i just saw it recently.
