Over Heating in my 2nd Gen 3SGTE - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #77870 2 posts Started by ST-204R
Gday guys, just a bit of a funny problem im kinda hoping someone will tell me thatg it is a simple fix and a common problem.

But started the car to warm it up walked away came back after a few minutes to find my St185 giving the presents of a dragon, steam coming out of every crack from the from end.(lol Looked pretty sweet) turned it off staight away.. after a bit of rooting around it turns out to be the thermos not kicking it. I checked to wriirng it all looks fine. so i hard wired, for the sake of a test, and the thermos turned on.So either a relay or sensor problem. Being a 20 yr old car surely a simple probel with the electric im going to guess. I will investigate further, but i just want to know if its something someone else has come across before and hopefully put me in the right dicertion quicker.


Cheers People

(Ps i know that this is a 6gc site, i also own a 6gc but 90% OF 5gc owners wouldnt know what a forum is lol)
sorry also forgot to mention that when its all wirred up properly, on idle thermos wont kick in but anything more the idle, so 1100rpm, the thermos come on
