Radiator fans
 
When do the radiator fans turn on? Does one run continuous and the other off a thermostatic switch? Do they both run off a thermostat?

Reason i'm asking is because the last time i started my car, i noticed that neither fan was running after i started it. i wasn't able to let it run to let it warm up for me to check the fans due to other problems. I have a set of aftermarket fans wired in.

They are controlled by the ECU, you might want to the relay though. Do you still have a Cobb tune installed? they won't be running unless it's up to temp. Did you try the AC?

Awesome, I need to get a real workshop manual.

The car didn't warm up long enough and my AC system is depressurized. That answers my question though. they probably work i just didn't see them run and just a little worried.
