Honda accord overheating

Discussion in 'Accord' started by jason.rucker2, Jun 14, 2007.

  1. My wife has a 1998 Honda accord. On very hot days while in traffic the
    car starts to overheat. This happens faster when using the AC and
    slower while the heater is on. Also as long as the car is driving
    faster the problem goes away. I noticed that there are two fans, one
    on the driver side and one on the passenger side. The fan on the
    passenger side does not seem to be coming on at all while the driver
    side is working. We just recently replaced the radiator and thermostat
    so I doubt it is one of those things. Any help is appreciated!

    the fact that one fan's not working should be a clue! go to tegger.com
    for the faq's and how to diagnose/fix radiator fan problems.

    If you just replaced your radiator, maybe the mechanic forgot to reconnect
    that fan. Take a look for a loose wire and check the connectors. Take it
    apart and reconnect it.
