Boiling water part 2
« on: August 02, 2010 - 01:04:29 AM »
Well, I noticed my radiator fan had stopped making noise (it was a loud thing).  Figured it must be electrical and I'd have something else to work on...

Ha!  I was just a little bit wrong...

Not sure these two little fans did much anyway...  now they certainly don't...   :villagers:

Have been reading about everyone using the HHR fan... certainly the right price and seems like a real performer.
That may be next on the list.   :stirpot:

I pulled the entire assembly apart and didn't find ANY identification.  They came with the car when I bought it, but honestly I'm ready to move on and find something better. 

If I can figure out how to wire up one of those HHR fans without torching my car I will...

just use a relay for the fan runing power off the battery directly , make sure it is fused

Seems easy enough based on what I'm finding on this forum.  I'll post what I'm doing to get QA from the experts. 
Thanks!

 I bought the painless wiring fan relay kit. I think I paid more for that than I did for the fan! :faint:

Ha Brad!  Sounds more like a painful wiring kit...  :)
This is an unexpected cost against spending I really want to do (hood pins, paint job, etc.)

I see relays are cheap, so the entire wiring thing shouldn't be more than $20 (if that).

Will see...  thanks.
