    Has anyone had a problem with cooling fan kicking in and out all the time. Engine temp doesn’t get above 150. It’s in a FL115 tuck

    Sounds like a thermostat problem.

    Could be bad high pressure A/C switch. The weather is not hot enough to cause fan to come on from A/C, so a bad switch can cause the fan to come on.

    Yeah I did- How did I fix it?

    I did 3 things and not sure which 1 fixed it,But it worked.....

    1.Remove both ECM plugs,Clean them use contact cleaner,Check for broken wires then reinstall.
    2. You'll have a Black Air line going to the Fan Hub- Pull it off-Blow air in the Hub,Clip the Line for a Clean install,Then tap the hub a few times with a rubber hammer.
    3.coolant temp sensor- Unplug,Clean connector and pins in the sensor-Reinstall.

    I did those 3 things..And It Never came on again unless Im Pulling Big Hills.
