You don't want to wire the fan "always on". It'll kill your battery when not running. There is a heat sensor near the thermostat housing in my GM 3.8L that controls the fan. Because GM wants the engine running hot for fuel economy, the fan is triggered at 224 degrees even though the "stat" is set to open at 190 degrees. If you can't hear or see your fan operating after the engine is really hot, check the fan motor and the sensor to see which isn't working. You didn't say if you are boiling over so unless you're in Alaska, I suspect the fan is working OK.

How do you rewire a wall switch to control both ceiling fan and light. The switch currently furns the fan on and off but the light has to be controlled with a pull chain?

Open up the ceiling box and disconnect the blue wire coming from the light and connect it to the black wire coming from the fan. Be sure and put a wire nut on the wire where the light was connected before you removed it. The wall switch is controlling power to the wire where the fan is connected so when you connect the blue fan wire to that connection you will be sending power to both the fan and light from the wall switch.


When the outside fan on a central air unit doesn't come on will the compressor still kick on?

Yes it can. If the fan is not coming on you could have a bad fan motor, a bad capacitor, a loose wire at the contactor, or a loose wire at the capacitor.


How do you connect a ceiling fan to a regulator?

First make sure there is no power going to the regulator. You find the wires that are coming from the j box or regulator. You then wire one of each wire to one of each wire to the ceiling fan. You then tape the wires together but separate from each other. Then you continue to finish hanging the fan.


How do you test the coolant fan relay?

Use a test light. You should have power coming in on a larger wire pretty much all the time. You have a signal wire that is only hot when the fan is needed. Turn the ac on. the fan should run anytime it's turned on. if that works, your relay works. As always, check the fuses.

How do you troubleshoot and fix a Lincoln LS fan The motor is V8 and the car runs hot while idling it looks like the fan is not coming on?

Hook up direct wire leads from the battery to the fan terminals to check the fan operation. If they don't work, then the fans are bad. If they do, then check the fan relay.

Disconnect the plug to your fan. Hook a jumper wire to ground the negative wire and a hot wire to the positive wire. If the fan doesn't work, then you can buy one on Ebay or other sources.


How do you wire electric fans?

no sparking fanThe white wire from the fan to the white wire from the ceiling get wire nutted together.The black and blue wire from the fan go to the black wire from the ceiling and all 3 get wire nutted together. Lastly the green wire from the fan and the bare copper wire from the ceiling get wire nutted together. 90% of fans are wired this way.

Tie all White wires together. Tie the Grounds together and connect them to the ground screw on two switches. Create a pigtail with TWO black wires coming out. Connect a black wire to each of the two switches. (you pick which screw, but be consistent. Connect the black wire from the light to the remaining screw on one of the switches. Connect the black wire from the fan to the remaining screw on the OTHER switch.


How to connect electricity wire to three wired out ceiling fan?

Some ceiling fans have a black, white and sometimes blue wire. The blue wire in this case is so you can switch a light separate from fan. If your fan doesn't have a light just put a wirenut on extra wire and ignore it. If you do have a light and want it switched you'll need an extra wire run to fan, and switch that wire for light.
