The primary cooling fan(radiator fan) does not come on when the car gets hot. The motor is not bad, because it comes on when the A/C is on. But the car will overheat without the fan engaging. I tried replacing the fan relay, and the cooling temp sensor (the one on the block (drivers side) beside the exhaust manifold), but the only difference was a strange electrical issue. now, after the car has been off for a minute with a key out, the clock on the radio comes on, and there is a funny clicking noise under the steering wheel.
makes no sense at all to me......

I forgot to say that when the clock comes on, if I mess with the radio, or open the door, it turns off.
And yes, I know that the radio is designed to stay on, but this happens after I've left the vehicle, and i come back a minute later.

Engine is a 3.4L v6, coupe, with the stock head unit (non-monsoon) - AM/FM radio and cassette player.

the clicking noise is a Relay, no doubt, in the fuse box under the steering wheel. For the radio and clock thing, it sounds like you have a short to ground somewhere forcing it on. Check if you put the new relays in backwards. There is a engine ground at the near the top left of the radiator that grounds all your fans for your radiator, make sure thats connected and corrosion free. other then that i really don't have the information to help you too much. Next time incluse the engine size, the body type and the radio type.

I've replaced the engines in a couple of those Z's and it could be the drivers side sender is for the gauge only, and there might be a senser in the right head(hard to get to) that is for the fan. Has the same style connector as the knock sensor that is near it in block. The temp senser I'm talking about is in head between #6 and #8 spark plugs.

the vehicle is 14 years previous and that i does no longer even difficulty to fool round nitpicking to discover the reason of the misfire. i could do a finished spark delivery music-up. Ignition coils are a common rationalization for misfire even as they get previous and so i could replace the coils. once you've the bottom 6 cylinder 3.4L engine on your 1994 Camaro the OE coils are ACD555 ACDelco coils and also you are able to desire 3 (about $50 each and each). yet another common rationalization for misfire are worn spark plugs. The OE spark plugs on the Camaro 3.4L engine are the AC1 ACDelco Rapidfire spark plugs and also you are able to desire 6 (about $4.50 each and each). hollow them at 0.40 5. previous or low priced alternative spark plug wires are also a common rationalization for misfire and if the wires you position on very last year are literally not the AC9726C ACDelco spark plug cord set (about $40 8), which supercedes the OE AC726C ACDelco spark plug cord set, then i could scrap those wires and replace them with the AC9726C ACDelco cord set. searching on the position you purchase the ACDelco aspects the approximate fee of aspects for a finished spark delivery music-up will be about $225, and to placed an end to the intermittent misfire without nitpicking to discover the reason which will be funds properly spent on your 14 year previous Camaro.

You can get wiring diagram from autozone's website. You may have to search around a little but it's worth it.
