Noticed something new today and not sure if this is normal or not.
Replaced thermostat this weekend and all appeared to be OK. While running the
engine to purge any entrapped air, noticed the cooling fans coming on and
cycling on a regular basis but duty cycle was probably less than 25%. Today I
noticed that every time I came to a stop the cooling fans would come on
immediately and stayed on until I was moving again. I live in a somewhat rural
area and no stop and go driving 40mph or more is quite easy. Weather is cool
(60°) & wet. Even had the heater on low. I don't think the fans were acting
this way before the repair but recently weather has been warmer that today.
New thermostat is stock temperature and temp gage is reading in the same area as
before.
Thought was maybe due to ambient temp the AC was coming on with the heater to
dehumidify the air but checked and AC is not running.
Anyone got an idea of what I'm seeing? TIA
