What should the fan temperature be on a 1984 Corvette?
For this reason, we recommend using a minimum 180 degree thermostat and turning on the cooling fans at the 200-205 degree range. 1984 Corvettes will have the most noticeable improvement, as the factory cooling fan setting is 238 degrees.
Why does my car have a radiator fan?
You probably already know the purpose of the radiator and the cooling system in your car. When you are driving fast, the wind is passing through the radiator to cool the coolant down without issues, but when you are driving slow, there is no wind pushed through the radiator. This is why we use a radiator fan.
How can I make my Corvette cooling fan run simultaneously?
Connect one of the new harness wires to the dark green/white wire. Route the other harness wire to the main fan relay (near the battery). Locate the dark green/white wire at the relay connector. This will make both cooling fans come on simultaneously, meaning less run time for both fans if the cooling system is in good condition.
What kind of fan control does a 1990 Corvette use?
1990-1993 Corvettes will have the dark green or blue wire spliced into the fan relay with the dark green/white striped wire for primary fan control. This works best for stock or mildly modified engines.
What should the cooling temperature be on a 1984 Corvette?
1984 Corvettes will have the most noticeable improvement, as the factory cooling fan setting is 238 degrees. Lower temperatures will work at the expense of fuel mileage. There are various cooling fan control switches available to turn the cooling fans on earlier than the factory ECM or PCM controlled settings.
Where is the cooling fan switch on a 1984 Corvette?
The 1984 Corvette has a standalone cooling fan control circuit. The switch is connected directly to the cooling fan relay without any engine computer intervention. The cooling fan switch is located in the passenger side cylinder head between cylinders number six and eight spark plugs.
Is there a way to turn on the cooling fan?
There are various cooling fan control switches available to turn the cooling fans on earlier than the factory ECM or PCM controlled settings. We recommend using a cooling fan switch that matches the thermostat opening temperature. For instance, our 244455 fan switch turns the fan on in the 200 degree range.
