well, my 97' gt began giving me trouble today for the first time since i've had it. (nov2009)
my temp went up to three quarters on the way to school, i thought it might be cause i was low on coolant. i came home after school, waited a little for my radiator to cool down, refilled the coolant. then i go to drive to walmart, and my temp gauge started going up again. later on at home i let it idle for a while... my temp started rising again and realized my fans weren't activating. i checked the fan fuse, its good. so i'm guessing its the fan relay sensor? but i can't seem to find it, or any diagrams of where it might be. any help please! thanks in advance |

oo okay, i didn't know about the flow, but i now understand there can be a flow with a bad thermostat.
but do you guys still think its the thermostat when my fans don't activate at all? i let my car idle, they don't activate i drive it, my temp starts going up, and they still don't activate ahhhh help! |

Yes his thermostat could be stuck. Worth replacing.
Now somebody explain to me how a stuck thermostat can cause his fan to stay off. What he's asking for is the location of the temp switch/sensor that controls the fan relay. Sorry, I don't know the location. |
