hey guys, hope this is the correct area to post my question or.. about the problem i'm having, but here it goes...

long story short, i messed up my stock radiator & fan, replaced the radiator, and decided to pick up a quick fan from autozone(or was it pep boys?).. the fan came with the usual, blue and black wires.. which i then spliced to the stock fan plug. plugged it in to the control box, and nothing.. i've since then (2weeks now?) been driving with it.. and still nothing.. the fan has yet to come on..

so today, i decided to start working on my car again, after an extended break after the radiator mishap, and i'm tryin to figure out wth is up with the fan.. ran the wires to that battery and low and behold.. the first time the fan's spun since i bought it.. wth do i do?! plz help!! thanks in advance..

btw, ive searched and found that ya a lotta ppl with 03's and such had issues with the fan, and got it swap'd out by mitsu, but.. i dont think warranty will cover it since i've spliced into the stock harnesss plug (one that plugs into the control unit), and i'm obviously not running the same fan.. any ideas, if you guys think it's the control unit, as to how much that unit will run me?

 

Did you try running a power test to see if there's any current actually running through your stock wires? U could have blown a fuse from the load, always check your fuses.

If the fan worked perfectly tied directly to the battery, u know your fan is good!

 

checked the fusebox.. nothing blown.. i'm guessing it must be the unit?
