Radiator FAN

[tec-eng]

Tsikoteers,

First of all let me greet you a "Happy and Prosperous NEW YEAR".

My problem is with my radiator FAN (back). My ride is Toyota Corolla 89 model. Pag switch ko ng susi sa on position ng ignition tumatakbo agad radiator fan ko. Di ba dapat di agad umaandar yun. Sabi ng kasama ko baka sira daw yung thermostat kaso kashit tinanggal ko na yung connections sa thermostat umaandar pa rin. Pero di ko rin sure kung tama yung tinanggal ko. Dapat di ba nag automatic lang yun? Kainis nga nagpalit na ko ng fan kasi nasira na dahil continous ang andar nya. Tulong naman po. TNX

sounds like nka rekta ung fan mo a. this is a common (but not very good) solution of many mechanics. the thermostat does not control the fan. there is a thermoswitch that controls when the fan should come on. baka ung thermoswitch ang sira. and you're right, dapat automatic ang fan. only when the engine temp goes high enough, that's when the fan should come on.

have it checked nalang and replace all the parts necessary to make your cooling system work properly. mura lang naman thermostat and this will ensure that your engine works at the proper operating temp at all times.
