There is no need for the fan to run while traveling at highway speed. There is plenty of air flowing through the radiator at high speeds to keep the system cool. The only time it will work at highway speeds is when the A/C is on.
The engine...
A good search engine should have speed, accuracy, and reliability.
Clean your radiator with Simple Green or something that gets rid of grease, make sure it doesn't eat aluminum though. Your fan may be working but no air is getting through your radiator.
The cooling fan relay on the 2004 Chrysler Sebring is in the engine compartment fuse box. There are actually two cooling fan relays in this fuse box. One is a high speed radiator fan relay and the other is a low speed radiator fan relay.
Check the fan Hi-speed relay They use one relay for speeds 1-4 and a separate on for speed 5 or could be hi-speed winding in motor is burned out or could be defective switch
3.4 liter engine. lowspeed fan 217 degrees. high speed fan 230 degrees. 3.8 liter engine. lowspeed 212 degrees. high speed 221 degrees.
Most cooling fans come on low speed around 150 to 180 degrees Fahrenheit. Unless, your running the air conditioner or the defroster. Turning on your air will also activate the cooling fan.
As long as the engine temperature doesn't move into the extremely hot range, then this is just normal operation for the engine's cooling system. When an engine is running at idle speed with the vehicle stopped, there is no air flow coming through the grill to assist in cooling the radiator. Only the engine's fan system is doing any of the cooling at idle speed. For this reason, the engine temperature will increase somewhat at idle in a non-moving vehicle. Once you start moving, even though the engine RPMs increase causing more heat, the air flow forced through the vehicle's front grill and through the radiator cooling fins compensates for the added heat and decreases the engine temperature. Note however, if the temperature is moving into the extreme hot area on the dash gage when the vehicle is idling and not moving, there may be issues with the engine's cooling system.
You really can't. It makes you lose connection.
Because u are pullin powert from the battery which makes the alternator kick on to keep the battery charged.....
A fan or cooler relay is used in electrical furnace to change the blower speed to the blank speed for cooling
Car engine temp's increase at idle primarily because there is little or no air flowing through the radiator coils to cool the engine coolant. This is partly because the car is not moving, and partly because the cooling fan usually will not activate until a certain temperature is reached.
