    if anyone can help me please. my car has a coolant leak from the lim gaskets. but am waiting to repair them. the car gets close to the 260 degree mark and i have to put the blower on to cycle air. i live in florida and its summer and already 100 plus out. i found the fans are not going on. i checked the fuse and its good. are there other fuses or relays i can check and or other things that would cause them to not work before i just replace the fan assembly. thanks in advance for your help.

    There is a fan relay, buy a test light or multimeter and see if they have power.

    Read the diagrams on the fuse box's. It will tell you which one the fans are. You can always pull and swap them too if they are the same.
