Diagnose and Test Fan Wiring
At 3:40 in
72 LSA Monte Carlo Boom Tube NASCAR Exhaust FIRST DRIVE! (Fab Process & Finishing Touches)
What happens here
Inspect the existing wiring harness, noting its messy and inconvenient layout due to a poor conversion to a standalone system. Locate a second fan lead that was previously bundled and stashed away. Unbundle it and prepare it for connection. For testing, connect both fan leads and turn the car's key to see if the ECU commands the fans to turn on. The test reveals that neither fan turns on, indicating an issue with the ECU programming or wiring for the fans. The heat exchanger pump, however, does prime with the fuel pump, suggesting that the pump's relay is properly triggered.
Goal: Determine if the car's ECU can activate the newly installed fans.
