I agree on getting a connector plug from a local salvage yard, you don't even need to look for the same model or year as yours, as many different Hondas and Acuras used the same connector.

This link shows the thermo-switch and the models that uses it; therefore, the green connector plug should be the same for these models.

Since you guys are already on this thread and responding, would you guys mind if I chime in and ask a silly question?

Where's the radiator fan control module on a 2000 Ex V6 coupe? I have the Honda ESM cd, and I can follow the trouble shooting steps, but I can't seem to figure out where the control module is and the ESM doesn't locate it. My next place to look is behind the passenger glovebox.

Here's the steps I have done. Checked fuses (haven't checked the relays yet). Applied power to the fans with direct 12v and they both spin. With the AC off, the cooling fan will run but with the AC on, neither fan will run.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Here's the location of the radiator fan control module.

Test the relays too.

Thanks Redbull! I had a feeling it was under there. What procedure do you suggest for relay testing?
