|
|
Hello - My fans when at idle or at slower around town speeds aren't coming on and the temp starts to rise. Normally, if I have the van idling, the fans will come on about every 3 to 5 minutes for about a minute and then stop. Looking for some tips on what to look at first?
Thanks!

Meant to say, normally the fans would come on about every 3 to 5 minutes. Currently they are not. Thanks! |

Fuses, relays, resistors, fans. _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.

The fans and resistors are fairly new, so hoping it's a fuse or relay. Thanks! |

An easy way to troubleshoot is to move your a/c lever to a/c. Then turn on the ignition but don't start the engine. The fans should be running.
Now work your way upstream with a meter. _________________ '58 Westy camper-come and gone
