• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

F3 Fan Running Way Too Much

Has anyone else noticed the fan coming on repeatedly, even in cool weather when cruising and not "pushing" the engine? I had the dealer put it on the machine and it reported a good bill of health. It is always at 4 bars and isn't throwing any codes, but the fan probably runs 15 minutes or more every hour. :dontknow:
 
I'd have another dealer check it out. My fans never come on unless I'm stopped, with engine running, for prolonged periods of time.
 
Have the dealer ride it to verify- Mine has never been anything BUT 4 bars But the fan rarely comes on unless you get stuck in traffic.
 
My fan rarely comes on even on pretty warm days. On really hot days in stop and go traffic it will come on and run for a while.
 
This does sound like something worth a bit more investigation...
Please let us know what is found; good luck! :thumbup:

I've got an RT, so it might not compare exactly... yet it also only comes on when I'm stopped in traffic...

...which is so rare, that it usually scares the crap out of me when it starts spinning! :yikes:
 
My F3 is like the ones above. Only comes on when it is really hot outside and in stop and go traffic. I have 4 bars and it turns off pretty quick.:thumbup:
