Is it possible to fix an wiring problem on a newer car?

I look at a diagram and it shows a box with 5 wires coming out of it, but when you look at the actual box there is about a 100 wires in it. It looks like there is no way to actually get to the metal leads on the box/control modual.

do you need a hand held scanner to fix these problems?

Do you need to be a genius?

No wonder the dealerships get about a hundred dollars an hour.

My fans don't work.

    Man oh man! You sound like you might be in over your head on this. Are you sure you want to start messing around with wires that you do not know what they are for and where they go? Mess it up and watch a simple issue go to thousands of $$$$. I strongly suggest that you buck up and have a professional look at your car.

    my suggestion is to inspect for chaffed wires first,then start removing connectors looking for corrosion,check the relays,hook up 12 volts to the fans to see if they work,and a multimeter will be useful and necessary for further diagnostics
