Default Re: Radiator Fans only working with A/C on

So take the pin for the ECM ground to the fans and ground it. See if the fans turn on. Basically, grounding the A/B ALDL pins will tell you the same thing.

I have Marcs chip in my ECM and did see that the fans acted just as Dynomite says.
No. Likely this was done to keep exhaust hot for cats. I just installed a Fluidyne rad. If I don't raise the fan request temps, CTS drops below temp where ECM LEARNS for updating BLMs.

No I believe you would ground the relay directly to confirm fan operation, return everything to correct wired scheme and then supply required resistance to the CTS connector to confirm that the ECM ground is being switched when the correct resistance is being seen by the ECM.
