Hi everybody, been reading some great info across this site by now sadly I seem to have a cooling issue or maybe not!!! So was hoping somebody with knowledge may have some ideas
I noticed over the last couple of weeks that the cooling fan was running full tilt after engine off which I’ve never noticed before, then on one occasion the over temp light came on but only for a few seconds then turned off?? My van has no temp gauge but I am using a OBD11 dongle reading to head unit this shows temps consistently over 110degrees!!! I have used an IR thermometer on all hoses rad etc and this shows temps of less than 70degrees??? I can only assume they are low as the fan is running even during normal driving, these are only assumptions I am making and may sound like nonsense to a mechanic. But basically my fan is running and gauge showing over temp but temp seems ok. Anybody any ideas would be greatly appreciated. |
