87 shelby z 2.2l t2, few mods nothing too serious, ECU is either stock or stage 1 mopar... can't remember which
The long story:
I took my car out for a drive and when I got home I poped the hood to check the timing and the radiator fan was smoking. I shut off the car and swapped out that rad fan for another one. I disconnected the CTS and turned the car to on to see if the system was working, but it was not. I pulled the plug from the relay and the green wire and surrounding plastic were a bit melted. I tried jumping 12v directly to the green wire for a second and the fan came to life. I tried another relay I had laying around and nothing is happening. I poped the top off a relay and tried it and I can see the relay is working, but nothing is happening at the fan. Looking at the wires I'm guessing the grey wire is input. I tested the grey wire and I get no voltage. the same wire on my 95 spirit gives me battery voltage.
The short story:
My rad fan was smoking so I replaced it, now I have no voltage at the grey wire that goes to the rad fan relay.
Where do I look now? Is there some fusible link that could had blown? is there anything else that could had been damaged?
