Thanks for the picture, Loren!

Joe, do you recall if your left fan turned on when you turned on the AC? I was looking at the description of operation for the fan. It said low speed should turn on if the AC is on. Then, I looked at the wiring diagram, I don't see how the resistor can be bypassed when AC is on. I'm starting to think my problem is not the resistor.

I might splice the resistor anyway, to check if I have an open circuit.

PM me your number, i can explain it way better then i could write it all down

Ok, I think I figured out what my temp gauge is going crazy. My radiator fan won't turn on when my AC is off. This causes my temp to go really high during stop and go traffic.

I'm about to spend some quality time this weekend checking all the sensors.

Any one with an idea which sensor/ resistor is responsible for turning on the fans when the AC is off. I believe TP mentioned theres a Low and High speed resistor?

Thanks!

Well I just had this problem,sorta. My left fan would not turn on when the right did for cooling/low speed. It turned out to be the resistor under the fan motor. Was easy to replace since I had the bumper cover off for radiator cleaning.

If both of yours do not come on it may be a temp sensor. i would think both resistors would not go bad at the same time. IMO. hope this info is helpful.

What is the best way to do this ??

I found the bleed nipple and it is way up there. Can you access this from the trunk or from inside the car taking the motor cover off?

Thanks for your help.

TSB 32/03 OCT 03, M/T - Clutch pedal sticking.

I have a 97 , I have had the car since 2000. I did not buy it new. I have always felt the pedal was very hard to push. The deal has replaced under warranty the clutch assy, flywheel ,bearing ,etc. They removed the pedal and greased it,bleed it. on and on. It feels like to me the pedal ,well ,drags. it it very touchy to release. not like any other clutch i have ever driven. it is hard to hook it up, it seems to always well, all of a sudden grab ,like my foot is moving and the pedal is dragging.

if i drive it bare foot and pull the pedal back with my toes it seems to return better. now i know this must sound VERY odd. i am writing this at the risk of sounding like a total nubbie.

does anyone have any experience with the return spring on the pedal ??

i welcome any other ideas, :lightbulb:

Thanks ! :cheers:

Problem solved ! it was the resistor. it would allow the high speed side to work but failed on the low speed.

Real e-z to fix. Had the bumper off to clean the rads out anyway.

Part cost $25 from Sunset Imports.

Any questions let me know,

Thanks for all who replyed ! :cheers:

Do you have any test specs for it?

If the car is out of warranty ,does the dealer or is the dealer still able to preform it at no charge ?

Ok, now on this resistor. Where is it? What does it look like?

Can i swap them to see if my problem swaps sides?

I am talking about the fans under the bumper ,the fan on the right side in the motor compartment works. The fan on the drivers side does not come on when the fan on the pass side does. Where is this resistor located ?

Thanks for your help !!

My drivers side cooling fan does not come on when the pass side does. Have checked fuses and now looking at relay, does anyone know witch ones i need to check. Can't find a relay chart.

Car is a 97 ,986.

Thanks !

Joe
