hEAT IN THE red!!!

Post by Jshodgson »

mycar's temperature made it all the way to the RED today. I stopped and noticed the fan was not on. I drove home later and the fan cut in at the normal temp.

What should I check......if anything???

If it was in the red when you were driving at a reasonable speed (30 mph or more) you have a cooling system problem, if its done much over 100k miles, probably the radiator. If you were in traffic when it happened its probably down to the cooling fans not working.
