Remove the two caliper guide bolts using the ratchet and a suitable socket. Some model Express vans may call for a 3/8-inch Allen wrench socket.I would grab the allen wrench socket before you begin the procedure. Allen wrench is not torx, it’s the hexagonal metal piece.

So, first off it is very hard to understand your english translation, but let me try to help? Est-ce que vous parlez le francais?
When I see “march” that is what makes me think french “C’en marche”. Anyways, a car needs three things to work:
Air, Fuel, and Spark. I have found that many times the reason the car won’t start is because of something I’ve done to it when I recently made some previous nominal repairs. (for instance when I changed out the timing belt, everything was perfect, except I plugged the wires in the wrong firing order…Took me 3 days to figure it out. I would go back and double check your work, especially around the spark plugs and wires. Also, you mentioned you changed the fuel filter, are there any leaks (gas smells) coming from the engine when you try to start it?
What is the year and engine and transmission type of your accord? This will help some of the more knowledgeable folks answer your question, if there are common problems associated with your generation of car. Welcome to the forum, I’m sure everyone here will help to the best of their abilities.So, first off it is very hard to understand your english translation, but let me try to help?

That’s a funny notion. You would think they would remove that button from your posts. Lolz…

Now that everyone can see what I’m looking at, my model (with A/C) goes from the fuse # 39 to the radiator fan relay (switch side)to the radiator fan motor. Nothing else messes with that. On the control side, it goes from fuse #8 to the fan timer unit, then goes to the control side of the relay to coolant switch A to ground. Does that make sense?
So if that’s the case, and I have a new rad fan relay (although this advanced auto parts seems to have shoddy parts 60% of the time, like someone’s returned their old one in the box and they took it back) a new coolant switch (same advanced auto) and still doesn’t work. However, when I jump coolant switch A, both fans turn on no problem.
My guess here would be to swap out coolant switch A again at a more reputable parts store, then if that still doesn’t work …?Now that everyone can see what I’m looking at, my model (with A/C) goes from the fuse # 39 to the radiator fan relay (switch side)to the radiator fan motor.

I have a haynes and a chiltons manual, I attempted to follow eric’s electrical basics videos, and the wiring diagram is very hard to follow in my books. any websites that you guys are aware of that may have a free diagram that is top to bottom like eric had?

Update:
Jumping the switch on the thermostat housing causes both fans to run, however replacing that switch yields no results. What next?Update:
