2nd fan relay in 4 years - just me?

Post by Don Montgomery » Sun Sep 05, 2010 3:30 pm

In '06 I replaced the OEM radiator fan relay with a Denso 056700-5260 because, although it would actuate, the contacts would not flow current. After 12K, that one has gotten iffy as to whether it will flow current now causing me to beat it home today. The engine only ran hot after sitting in traffic, at speed it would force air cool so I got back with no damage. After verifing power at the relay and the relay clicking, the fan would not run but power directly to the fan spun it every time it was applied. Via the relay when shorting the temp sensor to ground the relay would click but only 1 of 3 times would it spin the fan.
 
Sounds like burned points, do I need a capacitor on this thing?
 
Anyone else experience this?
 
Thx all!
