EPnick22 Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 where abouts actually is the fan switch? never really looked at it, and Jay the aircon was removed years ago before I have the car, its only since I swapped the rads over that its constantly on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
corofin12345 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 the fan switch/sensor is on the thermostat housing.. follow the bottom hose back from rad, its at the end of the hose on "thermostat housing" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jayc-glanza17 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) isn't the green plug coolant temp sensor on the thermostat housing? Edited October 10, 2013 by jayc-glanza17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
corofin12345 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) isn't the green plug coolant temp sensor on the thermostat housing? thats on the water housing.. the fan switch/sensor in on the thermostat housing.. the CTS has either 2 or 3 pins depending on the year/loom...

EPnick22 Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 its a '92 ep82 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
corofin12345 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) its a '92 ep82 its the one i linked to you mate.. also may be worth checking to see if the connector for the A/C is still bridged... this would of been done when the A/C was removed.. link below shows this connector.. its located under or in front of the main fuse box in the engine bay.. it could of came loose when you were installing the new rad p.s. this only has to be done on GT turbos, not glanzas.. if this isnt bridged like below on GT's, the rad fan will run constant.. http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/3255/june006.jpg Edited October 10, 2013 by corofin12345 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
