Cooling fan not turning on
 
ALright so i have a 2005 ss/sc and today the cooling fans arent turning on no matter what temp the motors running at highest it was at 223 F so does anyone know whats going on or have any ideas. (its not the fuse but there is a wire thats not plugged in right near then fan and i cant tell what it is but im gonna take better look tom cause im off)

the fans dont turn on untill about 225 degrees its still in normal/ accepted range anything above that and fans still dont turn on than i would start to worry. i thought the same thing a few years back and took it to the dealer and they told me its fine. also my fans barely turn on while car is running unless its hotter than a witches tit outside

I didn't think my fans were turning on after I bought my car so I let it sit and idle till it got to 225 then they kicked on. As soon as they did the temps dropped down to 190's pretty quick.

Try letting it get to 225, they should come on.

Wow! 225*?! My car has never even gotten above 190*. And I live in Texas where it gets hotter then camel pu$$y in the middle of the sahara on a summer day.

LOL interesting analagy (sp?) If you let it sit and idle it'll get that hot. It took my car idleing for about 20 minutes to get there but it got there.

Just turn your ac on man...Cooling fans automatically come on with ac. If they don't then start looking for a problem.

Yea my car gets up to 196-198 and then my fans kick in and the temps drop to the 180's.

reduf99 06-19-2011 10:46 PM

thanks guys for the imput i let my car run til it hit 223 and they turned on but i did have another ??

Alright so the other day it was somewhat hot like maybe 90 and all of a sudden when i started my car it sounded like it was running on 2 cylinders and i nothings that fucked up cause the motor only has like 9000 miles on it and im completely clueless my one friend said it could be either the injectors or the spark plugs is he right or am i suppose to be looking for something else

zrated89 06-19-2011 10:56 PM

did it go away after warm up?

reduf99 06-20-2011 09:32 AM

I didn't let it ru.n that long. I tried rev it and it didn't it sounded like shit

05Slowline 06-20-2011 06:06 PM

not letting it warm up and revving it sounds like a winner
