next time i see his car i will get pics... anywho

for those who don't know my brother in law was involved in an accident. he put the car back together and bought a used saleen supercharger.... none the less he learned his lesson of not buying used anymore with missing parts and so on.. not to mention he did not receive the saleen intercooler resivor they gave him some cheap plastic one..

anywho he finally got everything hooked up and all the parts and the car is ready to go...

so he starts her up just fine givers her to short i would say 150-200 ft runs and then next thing you know engine is over heating and fuel pressure goes down....

so my question is to help him...

he put on a new fluidyne radiator and he said that the fan was not activating who knows it if is even reading the radiator... the engine and supercharger are still fine he caught this before it did some major damage... but can anyone tell me where to tell him either how to or where to look to fix it???

he thinks it might be a bad ccm? i guess where the radiator hooks up cause the fan is not activating.... we are looking for thoughts and ideas to hopefully get this car running and running strong.... he also did get the cpu flashed by saleen...

so main problem now is radiator fan is not kicking/turning on and therefore engine overheated...but no damage done due to it being caught early at least we hope.. any advice or fixes/tips would greatly be appreciated i am really looking towards you guys for this one.. thanks..

if you need any more info please post..

ok everything is plugged in all the fuses are working/or not damaged....

ect sensor i believe was plugged in the right place... he was thinking of some senors that may have went bad during the accident since he had a front end impact and damaged the previous radaitor...

but i will double check everything and make sure but any further advice on what to check for is needed thanks... i want to check everything possible...

use a volt meter to see if the fan is getting power with the motor running and the AC on. If it is getting power, he needs to replace the fan motor. If it isn't check fan relay, and ect sensor.
