    I can not get my fan running. A/C needs to recharged, so I can not run that. Is there a way to run the fan manually? Maybe short circuit a fuse port?

      The only thing I could think of if you splice the wires and hook it up to a switch and run the switch inside the cabin.

    To remove the radiator of the car, did you have to remove the AC lines as well? and if so did you recharge it yourself?

      Did not have to remove ac lines at all

      @@renekaminski8138 So you did not needed to recharge the AC with refrigerant after replacing the radiator fan and placing it back to its original place?

    How difficult was it to remove the radiator? Or, did you? I've got a leaky radiator in mine.. Looks like an ac line may be going through it or, possibly a trans line..
    Thanks in advance

      Vdubin64 as easy as most start with the front bumper and go from there .once you remove front bumper you have a better view to see what leaking

      I appreciate the response..

      Yes, Managed to get it all taken care of.. It was slightly time consuming but, not a difficult job.. I replaced the radiator over the summer months, and we've been going strong ever since without any issues.. I did have to remove and replace the condenser line..

      @@Vdubin64bug Well that's quite a bad design, needing to remove the AC lines to remove the radiator. And how did you recharged it and added ND-11 oil back? you did it yourself? Also i want to know how to remove the coolant reservoir, since i wanted to change the coolant that was in there but did not saw a way to remove the reservoir. Do i have to remove the radiator in order to remove the coolant reservoir?
