[Solved] Radiator fan not working when car gets hot

Topic starter

Hello,

I have a 2013 Chevy Spark 1LT w/ Automatic Transmission with 50k miles whose radiator fan is not working when car starts to heat up. No codes on the car.

 

Things i have checked and done so far:

1-Fan itself works when connected to power.

2-Fan also kicks on when MAF sensor is unplugged

3-Fan does NOT kick on when AC is on full blast

4-I can hear the relays kicking on and swapping them around does nothing(car has high and low relays)

5-Swapped the engine coolant sensor assembly but no change

6-Swapped the Engine Cooling Fan Resistor(Heard from someone it might have caused the issue, no luck)

 

Any ideas?

 

Much Appreciated,

Endri

Off in the band circuit in the main computer when it warms up and heats up we'll do that if it does not heat though I would just live with it vehicles worth basically nothing


Thanks Scotty. Definitely not putting a ton of money into it. I will be sending it a mechanic, maybe they can figure it out before i give up on it.

Is you computer under the hood or in the passenger compartment? If under the hood check for corrosion and water intrusion.

Something you can try that won't cost you anything and only takes a few minutes to do. It's worth a shot.

Disconnect the battery cables and connect them together for a few minutes. Then reconnect them to the battery. Next, turn on the ignition switch to the run position for a minute, then, after the minute is up start the engine. See if your cooling fan operates as it should.


Thank you for the ideas. I believe the computer is in the passenger side behind the glove compartment but, i will check it regardless and will give a shot to your instructions.

Thank You,
Endri
