Radiator cooling fan not working

160

Asked by Jaymz21 Oct 20, 2018 at 09:31 PM about the 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer ES

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My radiator fan wont turn on, on it's own. When I
turn the AC on both fans kick on. And work perfect,  
keep the car cool but if the AC is off the car no
radiator fan. I just replaced the fan control module,
and the coolant temp sensor was replaced about a
month ago. I'm not too sure where else to look on
this. I know the both fans operate, but radiator
cooling fan wont work on it's own. Any thoughts
would be much appreciated!

So I should return my fan controller and get a different one? Maybe the one I got was faulty?

It was the fan controller, the one that I had replaced was faulty. But I also went ahead and used fans from an 04 lancer and they worked a lot better as well
