The two fans in the front don't turn...

The two fans in the front don't turn...

Sorry for my limited knowledge on this matter, but the two big fans in the front, next to the radiator, never turn. Whether I'm parking or giving gas. Is it normal?

Thanks.

Has your car ever overheated while driving? What about sitting still for a long time?

mig02 what kind of questions is that...jk lol
Trying turning your A/C on or probably your car is not warmed up. If your car is not over heating then they are working.

No my car never overheated... I guess they only run when the car is overheating.

they usually only operate with A/C on or after your car gets past a certain temperature.. usually around 220 degrees or so. Mine hardly ever come on

Yes. If your car isn't overheating, you don't have anything to worry about. They'll come on when they need to (stop and go traffic, turning the a/c on etc) My fans (flexalite) are very noisy so I know when they're on :)
