Hi all... New dood here.
My girlfriends son has a 2003 Honda Civic EX and I'm doing the front brakes and installing a VTEC solenoid switch. I just put a starter in last week.
As I was driving her sons car back from his dorm today and when I turned on the A/C I noticed the temp gauge needle starting to climb, so I turned off the AC and the temp gauge needle began to settle back to the normal area.
While in the driveway I let the car idle and I turned on the A/C full blast and the temp gauge needle started to climb, but the fans didn't turn on. So I manually spun the fan blade with my finger and WALLA the fans started working.
So can I assume it's just the fan motor starting to die, or could it be a relay switch of sorts. Certainly I'd rather it be the relay switch, than to having to remove the fan just to replace the motor... but if it's the latter, would you agree that my hypothesis of the fan motor being kaput is correct?
Thanks for your help
