So with my celli i see i have 2 fans on my radiator and i was wondering does it only start off with 1 fan until the car gets really hot? Cause i drove for maybe 5ish minutes with my ac on full blast trying to get the car is hot as possible which it got to around halfway on the temp gauge and still not action with the second fan. Any input please?

If you're driving a 5sfe. The fan takes FOREVER!!!! to turn on. Unplug the switch on the bottom of the radiator. Both fans should kick in and turn on.

So on my relays it says that i have 3 fans, but i only see 2, which are the radiator fans. Only 1 fan kicks on, which is the bigger one. I replaced a relay that said "fan number 2" but the fan still doesnt kick on, anyone know what fans number 2 and 3 are? If it helps i have a 7afe

Condensor fan is the for AC condensor, not the intended to reduce the temperature of the engine coolant (though given its position next to the radiator it can't help but do so).

Usually the second fan only turns on when you have the AC running and when the compressor kicks on. Is it overheating?

A way to test the fan is to take the plug out and run 12v to the fan it's self. If it turns on, it's good. If not, bad fan.
