Enginge fan not turning on after car is good and warmed up. I have changed the thermostat and the waterpump coming to this conclusion. Fan still isnt engaging. Does anyone know where the fuse is located in the car. I got it from the auction so there wasnt a manual. Thank you for your support.

Are you sure the fan is good? Try this test. Run a power supply directly from the battery to the fan motor. It should run. If it doesn't, replace the fan motor. If it does run, then you need to back track. I believe there is a fan relay under the hood in the power distrubition box. Check that. If it is good, then you may have a bad temp sending unit.

Let me know what you find. Also, in the relay box, there may be fuses for the fan. Check that out too.
