I said "reliable" not "perfect". ECUs are exceedingly reliable too, but

Re: 96 Accord Cooling Fan Problem
Hey Guys,
Thank you for all your help so far. I was able to trace down and found
the power connection for the A/C fan was disconnected. I check the
power connection for the condenser fan as well, but everything was
connected okay for the condenser fan. The A/C fan comes on now when I
start the car, and turn on the A/C, but the other fan (condenser) still
does not come on. The car does not over-heat now that the A/C fan is
working, but after a long commute (30 minutes or so) I noticed that
there were bubbles in the resevior tank....does this mean a head gasket
problem, or is this related to the condenser fan not coming on? I ran
the A/C during my commute home, and the engine did not over-heat at
all. I did flush the radiator before this commute, but I made sure to
bleed the air out of the radiator, and topped off the fluid level for
both the radiator and the resevior tank. What are your
recommendations? Thanks in advance....

Replace the rad cap (with new OEM!). If that doesn't help, get the head
gasket checked out.
