What to expect when your Honda Civic radiator fan isn't working
---------------------------------------------------------------

### What does the radiator fan do?

The water pump circulates coolant through the engine where it absorbs the heat produced by combustion, and through the radiator where the heat is dissipated to the surrounding air. The radiator fan forces air through the fins of the radiator to help dissipate the heat efficiently. This process ensures that the coolant temperature is reduced before being cycled back into the engine. Without a working radiator fan, the radiator can't dissipate heat effectively and the temperature of the coolant will keep rising and can result in an overheating engine.

### What are common Honda Civic radiator fan symptoms?

If the radiator fan doesn't turn on or run properly, common symptoms are:

*   Coolant temperature gauge frequently higher than normal
*   OBD II codes such as [P0480](https://repairpal.com/obd-ii-code-p0480)
*   Engine overheating

### Can I drive my Honda Civic with a bad radiator fan?

If the radiator fan isn't running, the radiator won't be able to dissipate heat efficiently which can lead to overheating. An overheated engine can result in significant and costly mechanical failures. It is best to stop driving your Honda Civic until radiator fan issues are diagnosed and resolved, especially if you live in a warmer climate.

### What are common radiator fan problems?

There are many potential problems that can prevent the radiator fan from working properly. Proper diagnosis will help determine the correct repair to fix the radiator fan, saving you time and money. The electrical system powering the fan, any system that sends a signal to turn the fan on such as the air conditioning system or the engine cooling system, and the radiator fan motor are all possible problem areas that may need to be checked when diagnosing radiator fan symptoms. Here are the most common ways a radiator fan can stop working:

**If the fan isn't running at all:**

*   Blown fuse or malfunctioning relay
*   Bad fan motor or wiring issue Issue with the fan control module
*   Issue with the coolant temperature sensor
*   Obstructed fan blades

**If the fan is running all the time:**

*   Faulty coolant temperature sensor
*   Stuck fan relay
*   Issue with the fan control module or wiring

**If the fan is rattling or making too much noise:**

*   Worn radiator fan motor or motor bearings
*   Debris in the fan blades
*   Worn or loose fan clutch (for fans with a clutch)

**If the fan isn't turning on when it should:**

*   Faulty coolant temperature sensor
*   Wiring issue or bad fan switch Problem with the fan control module or fan relay

### What are the most common causes for radiator fan problems?

A properly working radiator fan relies on many parts and systems. Proper diagnosis will help determine the correct repair to fix the radiator fan, saving you time and money. The electrical system powering the fan, any system that sends a signal to turn the fan on such as the air conditioning system or the engine cooling system, and the radiator fan motor are all possible problem areas that may need to be checked when diagnosing radiator fan symptoms.

#### Broken radiator fan motor or fan clutch

Electric radiator fans typically have the fan blades attached to an electric motor, either as separate components or as a single unit. All electric motors have a limited lifespan and must be serviced or replaced. Some radiator fans operate with an oil filled fan clutch, which increases or decreases the coupling of the fan speed with the engine speed based on temperature. This oil breaks down over time, requiring the fan clutch to be replaced.

#### Broken radiator fan fuse, relay, or wiring

The radiator fan fuse protects the electrical system and the fan motor from damage by closing the circuit if the amperage limit of the circuit is exceeded. Relays act like power switches, and can turn the radiator fan on or off based on specific conditions, such as if a certain coolant temperature is reached. If your radiator fan runs at different speed modes (typically a high speed and a low speed) then there may be multiple relays. The radiator fan's wiring should be checked. Open or short circuits can prevent the radiator fan from running. Refer to your vehicle's service manual to locate fuses, relays, and their specific capacities or part numbers if they need to be replaced. A malfunctioning or broken fuse or relay can prevent the radiator fan from working.

Always make sure that the replacement fuse or relay matches the manufacturer specifications. Installing a fuse with the incorrect amperage can result in a fire hazard.

#### Faulty coolant temperature sensor or fan control module

Electric radiator fans typically turn on or off based on temperature conditions. Sensors, such as the coolant temperature sensor, send a signal to turn the radiator fan beyond a certain coolant temperature. In many vehicles, the radiator fan should stay on if the air conditioning is turned on. If your radiator fan isn't working, the sensors or switches that send a signal for the radiator fan to turn on may be malfunctioning or broken.

In some configurations, a fan controller or fan control module is responsible for operating the radiator fan.

#### Low coolant level

When the coolant reaches a certain temperature, the radiator fan receives power to turn on. This task is performed by the coolant temperature sensor. If the coolant level is too low, then the sensor will have an inaccurate temperature reading which may prevent the fan from turning on.

#### Thermostat stuck open or closed

Coolant flow in the engine is controlled by the thermostat. If the thermostat is stuck open or closed, your engine may run below operating temperature or overheat. A malfunctioning thermostat can interfere with the operation of the radiator fan if it relies on a signal from the coolant temperature sensor to run.

#### Obstructed or broken fan blades

Check for any obstruction that might block the radiator fan from spinning. Damaged or missing fan blades can cause a significant vibration that will reduce the lifespan of the radiator fan motor.

### How can I diagnose radiator fan problems?

Safety is critical when diagnosing electrical issues or when near spinning fan blades. Start with the easiest items to check, such as fuses, relays, and the coolant level. If you have other related electrical issues, such as lights flickering, then be sure to check for any loose or corroded ground points in the engine bay. Wiring may be difficult to check visually depending on the sheathing and layout, but an [experienced technician](https://repairpal.com/auto-repair-near-me) will have the tools and knowledge to determine if the radiator fan circuit has an open or short. To test the fan motor, sensors and controllers can be bypassed by connecting the fan directly to a power supply. If the fan spins, move on to the fan control system. Sensors and controllers are more difficult to diagnose, and may require a scanner tool with live monitoring for an accurate assessment. Be sure to include all relevant data points in your diagnostic process. Related issues like flickering lights, coolant temperature reporting in the instrument cluster, and OBD II codes can help guide you to the cause of your radiator fan problem.

Odd is there some sort of browser setting? I tried it again and just get theirs.
