Hey in a bit of a bundle here. I removed the A/C, bled teh coolant. However my E-fans wont come on, unless I manually trigger them/
Does the triple pressure switch need to be plugged in for the A/C harness to kick the fans on @ 203f?
thanks!

anyone? Iin the FSM manual it looks like the fans neg wires are connected to the triple pressure switch.

Yes. A dead switch or loose will cause that.

Update: The fans still kick in @ 203*f without the triple pressure switch. So it can be removed.
and ericcastro you have no reason to neg rep me in this thread.

Strange. I'll have to double check that myself.

The FSM chart routed both Ground wires on the s14's A/C fan harness back to the triple pressure sensor.
My theory is the Triple pressure sensor is not a switch for the fan, but doubles as a relay and the ground wires still route back to the ECM.
I drove around for a while, unplugged the triple pressure switch from the harness, and sure enough the fans kicked in on low (203*f)
I just need to make sure its @ 203*F and not 212*f.
I can still press the A/C switch on the climate controls and the E-fans will kick in. The FSM states a few things control the Fans, triplepressure switch, ECT, VSS, and I forgot the other.
