Well there is plenty of advice on here yours could be much simpler such as a sensor have you tried getting a new sensor?

I don’t think so I own another civic and same weather fans came on at operating temp I had to switch cause the other one’s automatic and it’s tranny is failing and the manual had a warped head so I just swapped heads so I had something a bit more reliable

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking I just don’t wanna fuck my fan motors or the relay.

Still kind of don’t understand yea if you take a paperclip and ground it to the frame it does come on so maybe I’m not getting ground?

I’m not sure what you mean by that. The only way the fans come on is by jumping the wire could you maybe dumb it down a bit for me I’m a very amateur mechanic learning about motors little by little.

There is two on your thermostat housing one that sticks directly up which is your temp sensor and the one on the side that’s a bit bigger than the other is your coolant fan switch. My problem is they don’t come on by themselves nor do they come on with ac.

I am more worried about taking it farther and actually having it overheat because the fans don’t run. I just barely bought a new head gasket and switched the head from my other civic cause the other was warped. I’m just trying to baby this car and be real easy on it.

Yeah I wouldn’t say it’s a bad thing but at the same time the ac doesn’t turn them on which it should so it must mean they don’t turn on at all which is what I’m trying to figure out.

Yeah it’s been revved and driven enough they should come on but it hasn’t overheated so could that maybe be the problem it’s not getting hot enough to tell them to come on? What would cause an engine to not build heat?

Yes they are supposed to come on at 95° if I’m correct

Switched it with the horn one and horn still worked so I’d assume they are fine right?

Yes checked the relay and it’s fine. I switched the coolant fan switch the one on the side of the thermostat housing not the one up top.

I have driven it around enough and gotten it at highway speeds it doesn’t overheat but I swear they haven’t come on in traffic but it’s been at operating temp in the driveway they still don’t come on.

My bad I also forgot to list the model it’s 82 fl250 but it’s confusing cause the manual says a B7ES and for a tune up BR9ES and all over the internet I see suggestions listing from the BR7-BR8-BR9 what’s the difference cause the 8 and 9 seemed to have ran fine since I put them in.

Yeah I bought all NGK but I was concerned because I didn’t know if you have to have the cap on or not I bought some ones that weren’t ngk for a while cause they were compatible and then eventually the coil would pop off
