i get the p0480 my fans start working as soon as the engine starts how to fix this? i have read about the relays but my car doesn't have any in the fuse box under the hood there are no relays there for cooling fans. please help i need to smog it. with the check engine on i can't, i erase it and it comes back on. don't know what to do. thanks. joe
Ok so i checked it again this time, the fan worked and then stopped and never turned back on it got to a point that it started to over heat, i cooled it down and took out the fan and it looks as if it is the fan i checked there is power and there are signals going to it. so now i will be getting a new one, not sure ware but most likely will have to get a use one, short on cash. i'll let you know what happens. just in case anybody out there is going trough the same thing and their really are no relays on the fuse box for the turbo model that was driving me knots only for proabably for other models i have a turbo gt so don't really know about the others. so see you when i'm done ...
the fuse box is near the intake (see picture below).
If the both fuses are dont solve the problem the fans will have to be checked and the wiring.
