Recommended Posts

Need some help .... the electric raditor fans stopped working on my 1984 Avanti #3957 .... I verified that the fans do both work by taking the fans red lead to the battery .... both fans spin fine ... can anyone help me as to what I should be looking at to fix this problem ...???

Is there a fuse for the fans? That would be the first place to look. If not that, either a bad ground connection in the line or the sender that turns them on might be bad.

Good thoughts, I'd also look for a relay, which I'll bet you have, and check to see if you have power to it to activate the relay and also power to the fans through the relay.

If the relay works then it's the sensor, which I believe just grounds the circuit to complete it. I would think there is a fuse for the relay activation circuit, in the fuse box, but I'll bet the fan power supply to the relay is a fusible link, possibly from the starter power lug.
