Default running hot


is it possible to be overheating and your tach still show normal operating temps? the car seems like its running really hot, but tach shows normal temps. could the tach be defected?


i never see my cooling fan turn on, what fuses to check for?

It is possible that the gauge, the sensor, or the wiring between the gauge and sensor could be bad.But more often than not, the gauge will be either pegged or dead in such a situation.

You may also want to "jump" your fan to see if it actually works...but StorminMatt is on the right track
