was gonnna suggest, why not use a thermoswitch for the aftermarket fans? so regardless of conditions they will turn on..

similar to what my dad do to Kevin's car..

even if you have the engine off, it'll keep the fan running til the coolant temp cools down to when cut off is set to.

also have it installed in a way where it'll only run both fans at low speed when you have the a/c on and full on when needed/required..

sorry for bringing up an old thread..i am having issues where my radiator fans arent turning on, i checked relay, resistor even coolant temp sensor still not on

have you tried using multimeter to check if there's current going through it?

Mine was due to incorrect position of the radiator fan resistors.

They should always be just below the hot side / inlet hose / top hose
