More Problems

OK so my fans went out on ,my 98 neon. Found out it was the relay connected to the inner fender wall, great of chrysler to put it there but hey i got to it and replaced it. Now when i hook up he battery the fans wont turn off, opposed to before they werent turning on.. If you guys have any ideas it would be great to know.. Oh and another thing there is a sensor right by that relay, its balck and it looks like a plastic screw on the end, any ideas, thanks.

You may need the temp sensor.I unhooked mine and my fans ran constantly and my car did all kinds of weird stuff.It should be between the 2 left hand runners on the intake as you look at the engine from the front.I hope that helps some.I would suggest a Haynes manual or something similar if you dont have one already.

I agree, it would be your CTS or a bad relay, and since you replaced the relay that narrows it down a bit.

That's probably your battery temp sensor.

[Kingnick213]

it was my battery tempature sensor, does it fit somwhere on the battery holding case.

[palindromelol]

The sensor is located in the front bottom of the plastic battery holder. It has a large 7/8" ish hex retaining nut.

The sensor will drop out the bottom.

How did you determine it was your battery temp sensor?

i looked up a picture on the interent, i have another problem, wonder if you can help me. heres the story, my fans stop working, found out it was the relay mounted on the fender, got another one and a soon as i hooked it up the fans woudnt turn off so i went to work and when i got there i just disconnected my battery cables so they wouldnt run all day, and yes i waited to see if they would turn off, now when i got off work the fans wouldnt turn on again, with the new relay, i'm so lost, i'v so much to this car and i cant figure out this one, any help.

Really dude it sounds like the coolant temp sensor that is acting up on you.Give it a try before you throw any other parts at it.It could be shorting all the way to the relay and causing it to crap out.

i am looking for a turbo manifold for a SOHC. Willing to buy or trade, and i was also wondering if a turbo manifold from and SRT4 will fit on my motor. Any information would help...

[skatendestroy]

yes check your temp sensor!!!!!! change it if neccasary itt may be shorting or giving wrong readings !

also mholland dont hijacks threads itsd not cool make your own.....

[Kingnick213]

its not the temp sense, the fans wont turn on,, at first it was a relay, then i replaced that, and when i did the fans would not turn off, but now the fans wont turn on and my fuse keeps blowing, its the fuse in the box that says (rad fan), i think i have a short but i dont know how to check for a short. any ideas, well anyway i really appreciated you guys helping me out. Would have been screwed if it wasnt for this forum.

[99 Neon R/T]

Ok one last time and I am giving up on you.If the CTS has a short in it it will not give the proper signal to the relay whick will in turn cause a short.Given that it is apparently the only thing you havent tried whats the harm?It might just fix it.

[Kingnick213]

ok i'll try it, see what happens, like you said whats the harm, thanks man..nick
