Hello everyone, please help me with this. I have a 96 Camaro RS with the 3.8 V6.
I have several problems that I need to take care of
1. fans not working even after running it for 20min. They don't work with AC on either?
Where is the fan switch located???
2. I have coolant leak on the driver side of the intake manifold? Is this a common problem for these cars. I know that the newer 3.8 engines had a plastic intake that would crack? But this one doesn't. Is there a coolant line to the throttle body on these cars?? this might be busted.
3. AC compressor doesn't engage? I think it's out of charging oil. Do these cars have a switch that will prevent the compressor from engaging if the refrigirant pressure is too low??
I have looked into the relays, I switched the relay from the fog lights (which were working) into the compressor slot and into the fan slots and still nothing worked.
thank you for your help. I'm really frustrated.

Ok, I figured out most of the problems. I got the compressor to work, I guess when there is no refrigirant it will not engage.
I need help with the refrigirant oil leaking out??? I put the leaking die in the system but I can't figure out where it's leaking from? Is it common for these cars to leak from under the dash???
thanks in advance....
