1997 Honda Odyssey. Problem began several days ago. Radiator fan does not work with ignition on, works with ignition off. (immediately turns on) Checked 7.5A fuses 4 & 8 in main panel by drivers foot. Checked 20A fuses 21 & 34 in underhood fuse/relay box. Is there a procedure for checking the radiator fan control module AND where can I find it? Looked behind the glove box but no luck.

SOURCE: Radiator fan not working

Hi,

I am assuming that you are referring to the radiator fan. You need to verify that the fan motor is receiving 12V when it is supposed to be kicking in (engine hot) with a DVM (voltmeter) in its actual location. Having done this and likewise verifying that the ground is properly attached/connected, then your problem would be with the "clutch". Radiator fan clutch differs from aircon compressor clutch which is electrical and the transmission clutch which is mechanical. Most radiator auxiliary fans (not directly coupled) uses "silica oil". This oil has an inverse property, that is when hot it gets thicker and thus the rotation of the motor is transferred to the blades. There would be a filling hole adequately plug in or near the front of the fan assembly.

If your concern is not corrected by the addition of silica oil or if you can not measure 12V on the fan connector itself when it is supposed to kick in, then chances are your problem is electrically related. Some fan motor switching systems are coupled to the aircon switching.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.

check the thermostat, the thermostat regulates water flow through your engine to cool it down sometimes they get stuck open or closed, remove it and put it through a simple test
grab a cup of cold water and a glass of hot water drop it in one then the other, you should be able to see if it opens and closes

SOURCE: Clicking sound from gray box to side of glove box. Check engine light on.

sounds like the dampener gear shaft is trying to either open or close the vent and clicks b/c its stripped... turn the climate contol to the middle and turn it off...see what happens play with the controls back and forth from h ot to cold high to low and see if it gets worse or stopps or makes any diff at all if thats it, you can take out glovebox removes some screws/bolts and remove the gear or pull the lil plastic shaft out , however it will effect the the performace of the heater/cooling system. I would recomend taking it to a dealer/local yokal if you notice a change so that way you can still use it...let me know what you find

RING the makers to the radio and give them all the information and they will give you the code BUT check to make sure its the correct one for the car and not a radio someone has fitted at sometime.

1995 honda odyssey van radiator fan is not working?

Have mechanic test the fan to make sure it's in working order. If it's okay, the thermostat switch that turns the fan on and off may be the problem.

Honda odyssey 1997, key stuck in ignition, wont let us push it in to turn the last click.

Does this car have an automatic transmission. If so does the shifter have a button on the side of the handle. if it doe's there is a switch inside that maybe stuck and will need to be fixed or replaced. It is this switch that is causing the key to be stuck.

This happened to me two weeks ago in my 2006 Ford Fusion


Good Luck

How can i tell if the water pump is working on a 1997 honda odessey already changed the thermastat

this is a tough one, the waterpump on these engines is to the rear of the engine with its on belt that runs off the rear of the cam. i have seen these waterpump impellers break apart and then the coolant wont circulate and inturn iit overheats,i guess you would need to remove the pump for a good look at it. if you are having an overheating problem and the fans work then i would look at the pump. another test to see if pump is working is to start the engine and keep feeling the top and bottom hoses both should get hot after a while then you can say pump is working but if the bottom hose is warm and it runs hot then i would look at waterpump. good day.

My Odyssey 1995 problem is now; after turning Ignition Switch to 'off' Day lights stay on, heater fan still work, electric mirrors and doors lock are both powered. Sometimes, radiator fan turn. This...

It sounds like you're have a ignition harness(switch) problem. The igniton harness(switch) on this odyssey are known to go bad. The spring in the ignition harness(switch) sometime worn out or doesn't lock into the right position. I'll start by replace this first.

Honda Odyssey Coolant System Prob.

You may have air in the system. Run the car with the cap removed and the defrosters on allowing air to escape. Add antifreeze as needed to keep full while running. Fluid level will drop as thermostat opens.

Radiator steaming

The best thing you can do is to take close look to see where this steam originates...chances are theres a leak where one of the hoses attach.

1997 Honda Odyssey thermostat

Honda recommends that the cooling system be topped up with coolant four times as part of the refill process. When the engine is fully cold open the radiator cap and add coolant until full. Run the car until fully warm with heater at maximum. Let it completely cool down. Remove radiator cap and top up with coolant. Repeat this process two more times. This helps purge the air out of the nooks and crannies in the cooling system.
