sounds like you have bigger problems than your fan motor, such as your CAPS LOCK KEY being stuck. Not only does this make it look like you are new to the internet or are an aohell user, it also makes your text more difficult to read.

sorry dude. I am here at work and all my typing is done in caps in our system. I saw that you have hooked up your front blinkers also into being lights. I was wondering what you did with the original hot hire....?

Also have you had to replace your fan motor yet....?

haha ... its coo ... theres a couple other people on here who also use caps for work.

And what I did with my bumper lenses is used dual fillament sockets from the brake lights of another honda and I hooked the original hot wire to the low of the new socket, and then ran a wire from my existing switch for the foglights to the high of the new socket.

I got pictures and diagrams and all that stuff upon request.

And no I havent had to replace my fan motor.

I was thinking instead of doing all that, to just tap into the side blinker on the corner lens and have it work both ways that way!!

but yea you can do that using your existing single fillament socket.

I've had to replace my fan motor, matter of fact I need one again right now 'cause this one only worked for a couple months, I got it for about $40 buck from a salvage yard.

Usually you gotta take the shroud out it's only 4 bolts, then transplant the motor and reinstall, it's not that hard, i have no idea why it's fucked up again, but it sucks...'cause i can't stay still for too long or my shit starts getting hot

you can just replace the brushes in the motor... but its a major PITA, and prolly easier just to swap in a new one...

Has anyone else had problems with their fan motor....?

Yesterday I had to drive the car and my check engine light came on....? wtf.....? Do you think it has to do with the fact that the motor is not connected....?

Hey what's up MY 1st 4G, yeah I remember you!!

As you can see my car is not doing so hot!! :-(

Just go to the junkyard and buy a whole new fan, screw taking the old one apart. You could probably get a whole fan for like $10.
