Is there any way to keep the fans on for like a minute or 2 after you turn it off?
My car wont over heat but as soon as i turn it of, and like 2 minutes later i turn it on its hotter than when i turned it off. Usually 210-215, and while im driving its around 180-190. Thanks
It seems to me that the EDF relay control works separate from the computer, but it would be a real PITA (working with a timer and the EDF relay control).
It's normal for heat soak to set in after you shut it off. Once you restart it and the fan kicks on, it should cool right back off.
In your scenario above - you have the car at operating temp, shut it off, come back out and restart:
Once you start it up and let it idle with the high speed fan on, it should cool right back off within a couple minutes.
You should almost be able to watch the needle on a 270* sweep temperature gauge (a mechanical gauge) move downward (cooling off) in real time.
I'd make sure the high speed fan comes on pretty quick once you restart and that it stays on (you can configure the fan settings however you want with the Tuner).
About that, I was trying to see if i can turn the fans by just having it on the "on" position, and i cant do it. Maybe my fans aren't working. and yes on my AutoMeter gauge you can see it go down,and you can also se it go up while the car is up little by little
