How warm does it get? The computer won't turn them on unless the coolant temp gets to 235

2000 buick Regal run hot and hasitate when running. no engene light.

It`s a 2000 buick regal ls. make sure when it gets hot eh fans are running. There is a coolant sensor just below the top radiator hose ON THE ENGINE. This sensor tells the fans when to go on when the engine gets hot and also serves as a low coolant sensor. unplug the sensor and replace it. use a open end or box wrench. if your quick you can replace it and only loose a few ounces of coolant. Hope this helps and God Bless :O)

Location of thermostatic switch 1993 Buick Regal 3.8 motor fan motors don't run

The fans are controlled by the ECM and it uses the ECT sensor for temperature sensing, so if the check engine light isn't on the sensor is not the problem. You need to have an active test run on the fan system to see what code is returned. Have you tried powering up the fans at the relay?

Both cooling fans will not come on

Did you try jumping the cooling fans with direct power to see if they worked and the fan motor isnt burned out?You can turn the a/c on while running the car and it should turn the fans on even if the car isnt heated up.

Low Coolant light flashing on 1996 Buick Regal 3.8

The low coolant sensor should be located in the passenger side radiator tank, You need to take it out and clean the sludge off of it for it to work right. Or you can just unplug it and forget about it, the light will go out and it won't cause any problems.
