Where are the fan relays (I think there are two, one for each fan ?) ??

The GP Sorensen relay is $10 at the 'zone' - is that what you bought ?

They are located under the hood in the fuse box. You'll see 3 of them. One for each fan, then another one for "overdrive" for a lack of a better word. They are square and have 4 prongs.

Only one was bad. I could tell because one fan was working and the other one was not coming on. If both aren't coming on, buy 2. They're cheap enough that you won't ahve to worry about it.
