I am on Star Tek Info and I can not find any diagnostic information on my aux cooling fans. I am finding a lot of other stuff but not that, anyone familiar with where I can find it? Thanks,
Brian

Check under Gr 83 HVAC

What year & model? Many times that info isn't available!
Group 83 is the correct group on MOST cars but not all.

I am looking for information on a 96 SL320. I may be over-reacting as usual, but the temp in the car seems kid of high and I can turn the AC up full blast and the aux fans do not come on. I have tried to diagnose, but as with most systems in this car it is very complicated! Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

The 1996 & later cars(sedans & coupes) use a CONTROL module to control the fans, EXCEPT the R129 chassis SL's. That system still uses 2 relays & a ballast resistor. IF the fans don't come on with A/C then check the fuses in the relays in the rear section of the fuse box!
