Hi, when i turn the AC on in my R32 GTR the extra electric fan doesnt turn on, after some probing with the multimeter i found that there is 12V going into the relay, When ac turns on the switching 12V is there, but the problem is the ground wire isnt grounding to switch on the relay. If i ground this pin the fan starts.

My question is, is the fan grounded through the ECU or through some pressure switch of the air con, so it only turns on when coolant temps is high etc? Or should it be on the whole time?

Thanks

The electric fan is only there for an over temp situation (look for the sensor on the radiator with the green plug on the rhs of the radiator shroud). That is switched by ground from the ecu to the switch and then the switch turns on the fan relay, can only check while its running,just bridge out the switch. It is possible to connect the fan relay either by another relay or diode to the ac relay.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
