Condensor fan dead?

mccartyfan · May 26th, 2004, 08:40 PM

Hey all. My A/C condensor fan doesn't come on at all. I did all the usual troubleshooting things: ran jumper wires from the batt directly to the fan terminals (tried both polarities without a spin). I checked this process with the radiator motor to make sure I did it right and the radiator motor spun up. Am I missing anything, or is that pretty much the diagnosis? If my condensor fan motor is dead, does anyone have one

?

Thanks

You try jumping the terminals on the AC relay? That's how I tested to make sure mine worked. It did, but there was a friggen leak somewhere;/ Oh well no AC for me <3

Nah, this was on the fan itself. I applied voltage directly to the fan motor terms and it didn't spin up. I'm almost positive that motor is bad. Now, where to go for a replacement......

I'd try the junkyard first, r find someone parting out a car. Car-part.com likes to lube you up and go to town from what I've seen.

BTW, they both are radiator fans. You do not have a condensor fan. That would be on the outside of the condensor. A pusher. You have 2 pullers.
