The cooling fan on my car is not running when the car warms up.
1. Where is the temperature sensor located?
2. How do I test the relay?

had same problem twice... 1 st is was the relay 10 bucks at the parts store, second it was burnt fan motor, burnt motor was caused by shorts in connector for the o2 sensor which you will find share same wiring harness and y-off at the fan motor/ o2 connector intersect.
