I had replaced the relay at first but it didn't change anything. I ended up buying a new controller. It was 30ish bucks and now the fan works. Let's hope it stays that way.

yeah, i'd like to wire it to stay on all the time while the car is running, at least for now, but I have no clue how to do that... There is a floating orange wire and a floating yellow wire that my mechanic cut but he said that they were no needed... Yellow is ignition signal and Orange is a...

The previous owner of my 86 4runner installed an electric fan on the radiator. Sadly it is not coming on when the car heats up. I tested it yesterday by running it straight to the battery and it does work... The relay is good too. Any idea what this could be? The temperature sensor is a small...

Apologies for the constant posting but i'm working on this today and am trying to get this knocked out over the weekend. I did test the fan and it does in fact turn on when i run it straight to the battery... I'm just confused about which part is telling the temperature... I noticed there is...

Ok, well, that was weird. So yeah, it's a small white flathead type screw. I had the car running and turned it about a whole turn to the left (counter clock) and nothing happened other than it seemed to have reach the stopping point of turning. THEN I turned it to the right (clockwise) and it...

ok, never mind. i see the adjustment knob now. it is SUPER DUPER TINY! Any idea which way is a cooler setting and which way is warmer? Rather, hotter

Yeah, it's def not stock. As for it being Black Magic, i have no idea. Previous owner installed it... i saw the small black box but couldn't find the knob to adjust... But it sounds like from what you're saying, it's inside the box. Is this the same box the Relay is plugged into? I just bought...

Ok, cool, yeah that one worked. As for the heater, y'all were right. The wire that protrudes from the firewall that when you move the temp to hot, it pulls a lever in, was not attached to that lever. It had slipped off and it looks like that was pretty easy for it to do. I slipped it on, slid...

none of those links worked for me. Does anyone have one they can zip and email to me by chance? (kellybubba at gmail dot com)

Ok, thanks again. All of this helps a ton... I'll report back as soon as I get to the bottom of it. I know i had a lot of wires removed last month as the previous owner had all kinds of electronics rigged up in it including 2 power outlets, 2 amps, 2 subs, and an alarm with power locks and...

Ok Ya'll, i'm going to see what i can tell from what y'all said. One thing i did notice is that there is a fuse box under the hood close to the battery. I forget what all is labeled on it but it's pretty small. One of the labels says "Heater" but there is nothing underneath it. Not even a...

Hey Jeff, i'm down for this. Apologies as i need to set my forum account up to where it alerts me when i get a response. I have to log in and check to see and i don't always remember. Here's my email [email protected] Thanks!

thanks Jeff. that shouldn't be a problem. my interior is brown but I can just spray paint it. I've never seen one before so I'm not sure how it goes on? Is it tabs or screws? if tabs, is this something you think i could get from the dealer? this truck is brand new to me so I'm still figuring...

I just purchased an 86 4Runner that was supposed to come with a working heater. Alas, it blows but the air is not hot nor warm. Any tips on things I should check/replace first that won't cost me an arm and a leg?
