MY FAN THAT BLOWS ON THE RADIATOR DOESN'T COME ON AT ALL. I CHECK THE FUSE AND ALSO SLIT THE WIRES AND RAN WIRES TO THE FAN STRAGHT TO THE BATTERY TO SEE IF IT WOULD COME ON AND THAT DIDNT WORK EITHER. WHAT ELSE COULD BE WRONG?

If you're directing battery power to it and won't come on-its defective- did you wire it correctly.

YES I DID WIRE IT CORRECTLY, SO YOU THINK ITS THE FAN ITS SELF? THERE'S NO OTHER PLACE FOR FUSES BUT THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE AND IN THE TRUNK CORRECT?

Sounds like the fan motor even if its hooked-up incorrectly it should come on forward or reverse mode.

WILL A ELECTRIC FAN BE ABLE TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL FAN ITS SELF?
