R32 Owners

[Rossman]

i got a 1993 r32 gts-t

since i've had the car i had never heard the radiator fan kick in & it does not operate when the a/c is turned on...

i have checked all wiring/fuses/relays/connectors/sensors etc

all i need to know is:

does your radiator fan come on when your engine reaches normal operating temp?? approx 96 degrees celcuis.

i've been informed that the fan is NOT supposed to operate when a/c is turned on. and im thinking my car never reaches 96 degrees for the temp switch to bring the fan on.

can some1 please confirm this.

thanks

- Ross.

if by "radiator fan" you mean the electric fan in front of the radiator, and not the engine-driven fan behind the radiator, then all is ok and normal

that fan is an overheat fan, designed to come on about 100-110deg or so and does not come on even with a hard drive with the A/C on..

personally i wired a switch in my dash and cut the wire to the fan, so that i can turn it on whenever i want eg on a hot day in traffic

the fan is activated by a thermoswitch at the bottom of your radiator. turns on at 90degs. The fan on my 32gtr never turned on. Even when i tried diagnosing it using the manual. i just wired it up so whenever the the ignition is on the fan turns on. living in the NT, i think the car deserves to stay cool.....

mine sounds like a turbo fan from a 747.

all i need is wings and im set.
