Still have a problem. Where is the exact location of the temp. sending unit? I'm looking just to the front of the oil filter bracket. I got a sending unit WT522 at OReilly I also confermed that this is the right one by looking it up. What I'm looking at on the car is a lot larger than the replacement. Also, is there a fan relay? I wouldn't know where that's at either. I suspect a bad relay?

I emailed you the best diagram i could find of where your coolant temp sensor is.I also emailed you how to test your cooling fan relay it tells where it is in the test.I emailed the information to your personal email.It say's your cooling fan come's on with your a/c does your a/c work?If so turn it on and tell me if the cooling fan come's on with it.Also did you check the cooling fan fuse.Let me know what you find.

Duane Fulton says> The air cond does come on. I checked the fuse,relay, and put in a new temp. sending unit. This weekend I'll check out the fan motor. Could be a bad wire somewhere.
saturntech9 says>So when you turn the a/c on and you said it work's does your a/c condensor electric fan come on?All so if you have a kia sportage it say's you have a fan clutch and fan blade not a electric fan for the radiator.So are you talking about the electric fan for your a/c condensor not working?Or your radiator fan not working which is not electric if you do have the sportage model.Let me know.
