Well a relay will generally have three or more wiles attached. One should be hot full time (at least with the ignition on) usually direct from the battery. ``` One will be from the sensor that tells the relay to turn on. I don't know what is common, but this could be either hot (12 volts) or grounded when calling for the fan to go on. I would guess it is more common for it to become grounded when it is calling for the fan. ``` The third wire to the fan which should be hot when The first wire is hot and the sensor is calling for the fan. Don’t just replace parts, check them. ``` My guess is going to be the sensor. If you like replacing parts, go ahead, otherwise I suggest you check for voltage or ground and look for a change as the temperature gets hot enough to call for the fan. (Note: some cars will also call for the fan anytime the AC is on, which includes any time the defrost is on) Is that enough to be confusing. :-) ```
