    Ask Smithy Xtra Mitsubishi Magna thermatic fan

    Mitsubishi Mitsubishi Advice Mitsubishi Magna Mitsubishi Magna Advice Mitsubishi Magna 2002
    I have noticed that the thermatic fan on my TJ Mitsubishi Magna V6 seems to stay on too long. The coolant level is okay and the temperature gauge is reading as it always has. If left at idle the fan comes on, but doesn't seem to click off. Any ideas?

    The fan is designed to come on when the engine reaches a certain temperature and cycle as required to maintain a safe operating temperature. Yours seems to be doing that, and as there is no suggestion that the engine is overheating I wouldn’t be concerned about it. If you are get a mechanic to check the temperature switch controlling the fan’s operation.
