Maybe the motor is fried.
Have you tried a jumper directly from the battery. You'll need a pos and a neg. Don't apply pwr to both hi and low at the same time

If you hear the relay clicking you might have a fried relay.

I have never had a fan motor go out. I have had this happen twice however. I had to replace my CCRM (box next to the overflow tank on the 90* bracket). If you have a spare, or a buddy with a 94-95, switch it out.

I DID have a fan motor go out 2 years ago.
I smelled the burnt electronics smell on the way to work, only I didn't know it was the fan motor till I was on my way home. I came to a stop on the hwy and all this steam come out from under the hood. I managed to limp it home without overheating it by using the inside heater.

Thanks guys, the fan works on both speeds when hood up strait to the battery. I dont knw any one with a 94-95. The ccrm is almost 200.00at autozone, like i posted i tryed to ground out pin 17 and nothing happened, any ideas on that??

Does anybody know if a ccrm from another year would work on my 95

I would think and 94/95 ccrm would be the same.
Does the fan cycle on and off when you pull codes.
Also some of the cars have an inline fuse in the fan harness.

Well i went to a pick aprt today and got a ccrm, new fan harness plug and some other odds andends. Well i dug into the harness that connects the fan and ccrm. Someone had previosly chopped it up, why cant people do the right thing and solder the damn connections. I think that was the problem. So if any one needs i have 2 ccrm that work. I had already bought 1 on ebay to. Thanks for all the help
