If your engine coolant temperature gauge is indicating that it is running much cooler than normal ( it sounds like the engine cooling thermostat is sticking open / not closing completely ) which means you need to have the thermostat changed.

You should consider if have good heat from your heater and if your check engine light comes on.

Where is the temp gauge on a 2012 explorer?

In a 2012 Ford Explorer, the temperature gauge is located on the instrument cluster, typically to the right of the speedometer. It displays the engine coolant temperature, helping the driver monitor whether the engine is operating within a normal temperature range. If the gauge indicates overheating, it's important to check the engine to prevent damage.


What is the normal engine coolant temperature?

The normal engine coolant temperature typically ranges between 195°F to 220°F (90°C to 105°C) when the engine is operating under normal conditions. This temperature range ensures optimal engine performance and efficiency. If the temperature exceeds this range, it may indicate issues such as overheating or a malfunctioning cooling system. Regular monitoring of coolant temperature is essential for maintaining engine health.

How does a fan switch work in a car?

The fan only runs when needed to help cool the engine. The engine coolant sensor or a separate engine temperature switch is used to monitor engine temperature. Extra cooling is not needed when an engine is first started, so the fan does not come on until that engine reaches normal operating temperature which is usually from 195 to 215°F. The fan will then cycle on and off as needed to maintain the coolant temperature. So the fan runs mostly at idle or low-speed when the engine is at normal picture.
