When should my car fan come on?

Posted on 4/8/2019


Your engine fan should come on once your engine comes to operating temperature - the temperature it typically runs at - usually it comes to operating temperature then goes a little over, at that point the fan will come on to keep your engine at it's correct temperature.

If you think your fan is coming on to frequently give us a call and let us make sure your engine is operating properly. 



Happy Adventures,
