How can I make my fan kick in at a lower temp
Thanks chris
First and foremost..... the engine runs between 200 and 226 under "normal" circumstances. The system is designed to operate there and forcing the temperature much below 200F will not help you much.
Two options........
1) If you turn on the Air Conditioning or the Defroster, it will cause the compressor to run. This will, in turn, cause the cooling fan to run 100% of the time as soon as the Freon system comes up to pressure. This will keep the cooling system running on the thermostat. That will be about 200F.
2) Other than that, you will have to either have the computer reprogrammed with aftermarket tuning software by a professional or you will have to purchase a hand-held tuner to do it yourself. This will also get the system to stay on the thermostat at about 200F.
Option #1 is easy and free. It is also what most of the fleet does.
