You have lots of options here.......
With only a main fan, I'd recommend reprogramming the temps to 210 (low speed) and 220 (high speed). This will still keep the "two speed" function and allow your truck some room between the thermostat opening point (195) and the fan turn on. This will mean that you have to get someone to make the adjustment for you.
If you choose to do the Aux Fan and also reset your temps, I'd recommend setting the Aux fan for 205, the low speed at 215 and high speed at 225. This allows a little room for each one to try to regulate the temp. This configuration is the most desireable, as it has a stair step (3 steps) effect of fans for cooling the system....
You can also choose to install only the Auxiliary Fan kit. This will do for 95% of the SSRs that want a little more cooling and avoid messing with your fan set points. If you set the Aux Fan to come on at 210, it will stop almost all of the temperature swings.
The Aux Fan was designed to fill most of the operational voids that GM left in the cooling system without impacting anything else or reprogramming any software. It is a pretty simple little unit that does a remarkable job.
Randi's (Artsmart) truck was an exceptionally challenging one, since it seems to have a propensity for running hotter than the rest. Don't ask why....... we still have not really figured it out.......
But we have that one tamed, now.
Drop me a PM if i can help.....
