I have a 2001 Honda Accord LX 4-Cyl with 282,000 miles.
Recently it has been having an overheating problem while sitting in traffic or drive-thrus. The cooling fans do not come on by themselves, but will come on if the A/C is turned on.
As far as I am aware there is only one cooling fan switch, which I replaced a couple of weeks ago. When I replaced the cooling fan switch I noticed the old one had a bunch of corrosion on the terminals. After replacing the cooling fan switch it would only turn on both fans when it temperature was higher, and not just the driver side when it should have.
Now neither of the fans turn on, unless the A/C is on.
Is there another sensor or cooling fan switch that I am not aware of and it's location? Is there something else that I am not thinking of?
Radiator is not blocked or leaking, and the coolant level has not changed. This only happens when idling, no problems when driving.
Oil level is normal.
