Justicevr6 0 Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 I am sure this is not normal but when I put the fan on in the car the radiator fans kick in even if the engine is cold, it dos'nt mater if the fan is set to hot or cold,if I turn the fan on with the ingnition on but not running the rad fans will not start but as soon as the engine starts the fans start as well.Any idea's. &| Link to post Share on other sites
alanf 0 Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 ANY IDEA'S? .........................YEP! you could try turning off the AC! it needs the fans to run in order to draw air across the condensor to cool it, the reason the fans do not cut in with the ignition on is that the AC compressor is not running as it takes power from the aux drive belt when the engine is running, and possibly why the fans cut in when you start the engine ?!
