Hi all
My fan kicks in extremely late and I'm wondering where to start troubleshooting. I've changed the thermo sensor thrice in the past 6 months to no avail. Right now I'm riding with a direct current to the fan, so it's permanently running.
Fyi I'm riding in tropical Singapore and a couple nights ago I was caught in a traffic snarl the fan didn't run when it should, the coolant reservoir cap just blew out and some boiling coolant scalded my right thigh. The problem doesn't seem to recur once I had the fan permanently on.
Almost everything else is new. I just had the engine overhauled and the main wire harness changed last October. Even my fan relay is brand new. I'm also running Christian's multi gauge but the water temp reading is just missing (shows a dash or hyphen).
Any ideas? Is it possible the thermo sensor wire needs replacement? Could the fan possibly be waiting for a Fahrenheit reading (high!) from a Celsius sensor?
Thanks in advance!
