Cooling fans not working
I have a 97 ss, and the cooling fans wont come on when it gets up to temp. Ive been turning the a/c on, which will kick the fans on to keep it from overheating. I went through and checked all of my fuses and relays, and they all work. Could it be a temp sensor, and if so which one. I believe theres 2 on the car. Thanks for the help.

The number one answer to most of these my fans are not turning on threads is that people are not aware the stock settings are so high.

So your saying that the needle on the temp gauge is supposed to go past the 210 mark and damn near overheat before the fans are going to kick on? Ive been to scared to let go any hotter than around 220 in fear of a melt down and ill flip on the a/c and steadily watch the temp drop until I get the car rolling again. That just doesnt sound right my friends ls1's never go a hair past 210. At 236 or whatever its almost in the red zone.
