briandye Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Hopefully I'm just over-thinking and worrying for no reason (since my overheat scare), but it seems like my cooling fans are running more than usual. I notice just about anytime I drive, once I get home and get out (I open the door within a second or two of turning the key off) my fans are shutting down. I know it's normal for them to run a split second or two after the engine is shut down, BUT I just don't remember them running as much as they do now. It's been averaging about 40 degrees (F) outside, so it's not hot or warm even. My drives are 99% highway, temp rises like normal and stays right in the middle on the gauge, is this just normal fan operation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Probably. But check your coolant level just to be safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briandye Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yeah I've been watching the coolant level like a hawk, hasn't changed at all. Runs great, hot heat, cold AC, steady temp but I just don't remember those fans ever being on like that. Wouldn't think it'd need them when it's still cold outside (and I'm moving) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 The controller could be getting flaky but I wouldn't worry unless they stop running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
