CM 2008 Z06 cooling fan
I live in Arizona, as in hot. A few days ago after I parked the Z I noticed the the cooling fan was still running. I've had other cars where the fan continued to run after shutting down the car but this is the first time I noticed it on the Z. Soooo, is this normal? Thanks.

I live in AZ also (Chandler) and yes the fans on my 07 come on routinely after I park it in the garage and shut it down, usually lasts a couple of minutes.

Thanks Tom. It was a hot day, 110 or so. Like yours it only ran for about a minute I had just never noticed it before. Thanks again for the quick reply.

Move to Sandy Eggo! It'll be about 70 today! Bring your cars and be prepared to drive 'em! (Aw c'mon, you know you want to!)



It's normal fan operation. It can be adjusted via tuning. Be careful with "on 100% all the time" as the wires have been known to heat up and fail.
