Title: So, I was playing with my fan controller the other day...

The other day I started the engine cold and was doing some leak checks back there and my fan suddenly went to a high RPM. AC was off, fuse was good, so this didn't seem right for a cold engine. So I crawled under where the fan controller is and started playing with the wires going to the fan controller and the solenoid. The fan went to low RPM when I moved the wires a certain way, then back to high RPM when shifting the wires back to the original position. I removed the controller and cleaned all the connectors with some good cleaner and after putting it back together again, the fan stayed at low RPM. A fluke? A coincidence? Who knows, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Hope my MPG improves.

Interesting. Other things you could think about doing. If the wires are hanging so they can bounce and sway, tie them down. Could put di-electric grease in the connectors to prevent corrosion. Also is there a wire to ground close? If so clean the ground.

Yes, thanks Leonard, I tied them down pretty good and didn't notice a seperate ground wire, but maybe I should look again.
