Overheating problems?

My car is an Oldsmobile Aurora '96. According to my mechanic the fan doesnt turn on when its suppose to. My mechanic disconnected the sensor so that the enthusiast stays on, but he says take it to a electric shop ASAP, but its already too behind schedule since its almost Sunday. So what could be the problem? I mean he said the sensor is new, but somewhere contained by the electric system the fan doesnt respond to high temps.

Ok, so he by-passed the fan switch. Did he check the fuse for the radiator fan? Is the fluid full? Was the system properly checked for leak? Is it free of air pockets? And was it properly bled? Did he dry removing the sensor and heat it up with a torch to confirm the problem? Is your mechanic a dumbass? - electronic shop?? its an automotive component!!

Take it to someone more competent. If its not overheating, you should temporarily drive it to a different shop.

What do I do if a dealership...


It has to be a sensor. I have a civic which had they same problem. The mechanic started to change adjectives sensors until he found the right one which solved the problem. I dont remember which sensor it was since it was just about 5 years ago.

Answers:    If the sensor is biddable, it's probably a bad relay in the circuit...find the relay within the fuse/relay block and try swapping it for another one in the relay block of the same type or number stamped on it to see if it solves the problem...don't forget to hook up the sensor again too. Some systems turn on the fan automatically when you switch on the a/c also. Eautorepair.net has electrical system diagrams and factory repair info...small fee.
