Hello all;

Just bought a Taurus with the 3.8/99k miles for the missus. The
radiator fan isn't coming on as it normally should. It does with the A/
C. I checked the coolant temp sensor and according to my Haynes (I
know...) manual, at hot the resistance should be "near zero". I
measured 2k ohms. All other tests pass fine. Has anyone else had this
same issue?

TIA,

Steve

Yes, it was air in the cooling system.

Didn't find air in the system, but took a chance on an $18 TCS and
that was the ticket!!!!

Thanks!

Steve
