relays, fans and other fun
Verfasst: Fr 7. Sep 2007, 12:43
Good day from South Africa, I have a Reanult Scenic RX4 2002 with an radiator fan not kicking in.
I have tried the following :
shorted out the heat sensor on the radiator - no contact...
fan is working when I hard-wire it...
swapped the relays around, as the stupid things don't have indications
as to which relay does what (they have A,B,C... on them, but the owners
manual doesn't - it has little pictures...) - there is one position
that every black relay goes 'click' - so I reckon they all work. (unless the renault dealer that fitted my new gearbox - yeah the old one broke in two at around 100k km, but thats another sad and very expensive story - took a relay out and left it out. how many little black relays are there supposed to be?)
which brings me to think that the only thing left is a loose wire
somewhere or a broken wire after the gearbox episode, but the wires run into a wiring harness which makes it dificult to trace.
any ideas PLEASE? :prayer:
