    My info for that code, talks about fan relay. It says to check resistance across relay circuits, it says 30--70 ohms. There are two sides to relay, load side and control side.

How did you know that relay is bad? What about temperature sensor? BTW, what engine do you have?

SOURCE: radiator fans not working 1998 dodge caravan

First thing I would check is the fuse or the fan relay, located in the power distribution box under the hood. If that's not the problem, then I would find the coolant temperature sensor, unplug it with the key on and the fans should run.

SOURCE: 2000 Caravan-Engine cooling fans not running, replaced temperature sensor and fan relay, still not working-HELP

Did you replace the sensor by the thermostat in the engine block or the one under the drivers headlight, There are two, the one next to the thermostat controls the temp gauge in the vehicle. the one under the headlight assembly controls the actual fans and is a electronic module. You have to remove the head light assembly to get to it.

2002 Dodge caravan overheating, gage spikes up to hot, but were not seeing any fluid leaking besides when it gets hot steam comes from cap. found crack in radiator so we replaced and changed thermosta

I would check the fuses first then the fan relay , if you find two identical relays you just have to swap them to determine if there any good , if the fan starts working then get a new relay, if the fan still won't work then replace the fan thermo switch (usually located in the bottom part of the radiator facing the engine) if the fan still wont work then replace it. The best way to test the whole system out is to start the car and turn on the air conditioner (and blower fan) this should turn on both your fans, if the fans dont come on , check the fuses,relay and then fan motor then thermoswitch

1999 Dodge Caravan Overheating When issue started, thought it was a sticky thermastat. Changed that. Then overheated again and noticed the fans spin speed was slow then it kept poping fuses. Used a code...

Worn out or defective fan (spinning slow) and drawing too much amperage, thus blowing the fuse should be a pretty good indicator if all connections have been inspected and confirmed good and clean. I'd double check voltage to fan is up to spec, and use a clamp on amp-meter to verify amperage draw, and if too high, I'd change it. You should be able to get just motor to replace from parts store, provided all other components of the fan are still in good shape.

I have a 2002 Dodge Ram Quad Cab 4x4. The a/c runs great as long as the truck is moving, but as soon as you come to a stop it starts blowing warm air. Please help.

Generally if the a/c works fine at highway speeds but kicks out or slowly begins to blow warmer and warmer air as the vehicle is driven at slow speeds or is stopped the a/c condensor cooling fan is usually at fault. At highway speeds there is enough air being forced through the radiator, condenser, and oil coolers to keep everything working and cool but when the vehicle is moving slowly or is parked the electric and mechanical cooling fans have to be working to pull enough air through to keep things working. If the cooling fan isn't working or can't pull enough air through the a/c condensor the system will kick out once the internal pressure reaches a certain point. Once the vehicle is moving again the system can get rid of the heat that it has gathered from the passenger cabin, the pressure drops back to normal and the system cools again. I would start by looking for a blown cooling fan fuse in the fuse panel under the hood. Usually they are 25 amps or larger and run only the cooling fan.

1999 dodge grand caravan over heats when sitting still or driving in traffic. We have replace the colling fan relay twice. The fuse it good, all fans do work. Any ideas?

do the fans actually cut in? the relay is operated by a switch on the motor, either the switch is bad or more likely the wiring to it has corroded.

Probely a bad relay in the fuse box on the driver side. Theres a map under the fuse box cover to find the RAD FAN relay. There the same as other relays that the van uses. Pull the fan relay & replace with same number thats on the top. Theres also a 40 amp for the fans.

2001 Grand Caravan - Radiator Fan Control Circuit Problem

you will need to replace the relay for the fan because it is stuck on. You can look on autozone.com for free online repair guide. It will have the relay location unless you have a repair manual of your own. But it is the relay.
