Re: 96 camry radiator fan makes sound..
With your car turned off, just go spin the fan by hand and see if it is hitting something. Maybe something blew up and is stuck in it.

Don't do it when the engine is hot. The fans are not connected to the ignition switch and may turn on when the engine is shut off and your fingers are in a bad spot.

Re: 96 camry radiator fan makes sound..
i solved it. it was just a wire/cable touching the fan. i moved it a bit away from the fan with my hand. so now it does not make that sound.
thanks to all for the help.... !! Last edited by khai_kohokoho; 06-22-2009 at 09:45 PM. Reason: grammer |

Make sure the insulation on that wire/cable wasn't compromised by the fan blades. If it was (especially if it is an electrical wire), repair the insulation.
