Default Cooling fans not working

Hey guys I have a 02 TA that I recently put race headers on and removed the AIR pump (still on stock tune) and now my cooling fans will not come on. Ive tried checking the fuses, relays, connectors and have not had any luck. Would not having the AIR pump on cause the fans not to kick on?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I've had the AIR gone for a long time and no effect on
anything. Any weirdness with the ECT reading? No fans
even with A/C on?

No the AIR removal will not affect your e-fans. You probably accidentally disconnected the electrical connector for the fans when you removed the AIR system.

Q: Do you have Hp Tuners or similar full feature tuning suite?

A: IF you do you can force your fans on with the scanner software. Can even be done with the car off.

I would check the Coolant temp sensor, located on the drivers head. Fan strategy is based on that output.

I do not have any tuner and I just got done messing with is some more. I checked the wires and connectors and they all seem good. JetMech I will check the coolant temp sensor after the car cools down some. What should I check for? How long do the fan motors last in these cars?

Thanks for the advice guys!
