blackfang Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 You can try it, but we don't see them go bad that often. Many times it is the h/g's.

jospgut Posted June 9, 2008 Author Share Posted June 9, 2008 i just notice that the fans are not working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pheonix991 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 The fans won't turn on right when you start up the car. When the thermostat opens, the fans will turn on. A good way to test the fans is turn on the AC, if the fans turn on, your fans are fine. The fans also turn off at 45mph. Ummm... take it to the dealer, have them run a blown head gasket test? That is about as much help as I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
