I have indy fiero # 374. so, it's getting warmer and decided to get a new battery and fill up the motor and trans. it 's been sitting in the garage over the winter and hasn't been started in a few months. everything seems ok except I couldn't get the fan to run.I turned on the a.c. and it worked fine but still no fan. I hooked the fan to a battery and it runs. any suggestions?

I second the relay, mines hooked up with a toggle switch because it doesn't come on soon enough

I don't know what you're doing, but so far you've posted this same question four different times. I'm sure it's by accident... but hopefully you can figure out what's triggering this.

84 w/ AC use three switches and two relays inside one part to control two speed fan motor.

Start w/ See my Cave, Rad Fan

Both speed dead then check fuse and front grounds. maybe relay or relay's red wire. Already test motor...

Our fan motors are very old, and sometimes they die. It died on my 88 coupe. If you can't find another Fiero fan, you can mount one of these on the Fiero fan frame, after a little cutting of the frame:

Spal 30100400 16" Low Profile Fan
Uses less electric power, and moves more air than a Fiero fan.
