auxilary fan acting up

[robert weinberg]

Thank Tony!

to confirm is the below fan switch the same as the radiator temp sensor? or is that another part?
i'm assuming it's a different part?

Should be the fifth relay down.
 
That is the correct fan switch. Might check teh connections at the fan switch, and also check out where your relay plugs in. I just replaced a fusebox on a customers 200 since his fan relay melted, and took out the fusebox with it :(
 
Glad to hear it's been running right.

>on the bright side, my friend swapped the rack with a jorgen rebuild. and if you remember me complaining sometimes i felt i wasn't getting the full boost benefit of the car's dyno tuned 034 stage 1 chip? my friend also replaced the cap, rotor, wires and plugs. the plugs have been replaced before, but apparently the cap, rotor and wires WERE ORIGINAL! car has 119k on the clock.
