do you mean find them as in locate them ?

fuse - probably be in fusebox under dash - maybe under bonnet one...
relay - up behind the dash near the fuse box. there are some large ones under the bonnet in the fusebox there too. although cant remember which ones are where :p

Sorry, i didn't word it very well.
I ment to ask where abouts in the fuse box they are?

Only one of my fans is cutting in. The drivers side had siezed, and i have replaced it....but no power is getting down to it, so assumed if might have blown a fuse after the old fan siezed up.

1993 JDM WRX

Should the drivers side fan only cut in when the air con is on?
Several people have told me thats the case, but i sware they both used to come on (without the air con on)

yes forgot about that aircon - that should be the case!

if it doesnt come on with aircon, plug the black connectors together under the dash and turn the ignition on.they should both be on then.

I take it you have tested the plug with a meter whilst the other fan was on?

Not sure when the second fan comes in. But the drivers fan is only fitted to cars with A/C so I would assume it only comes on when the A/C is on :)

We didn't check TBH.

We rigged the fan up to a live and earth off the battery and it did work, so would appear there is no current getting down to the fan

Or the ECU isn't turning the fan on at that point ;)

I think we have cured it. The fan fuses (a yellow one and a red one) are just below the 4 relays, and the yellow one had blown :thumb:
