Re: Finally got my Coolant Issue Solved!!!
Currently there are a lot of high voltage persons on this forum and thus there is little resistance learning something new about our cars for the average henry or mho. Sitting in front of our own ohm, in the driveway; our fans draw alot of power when fed the full direct current 12 volts, thus the reason for the controller that typically only meters out about 4 volts to the motor in normal cooling mode.
TO blow the 50 amp fuse ( as the rolling stones put it)indicates to me that the controller may be getting flakey or that the communtator inside the motor has some intermittant grounding going on. In short, you may want to conduct your own investigation to see watt you can find out. No one wants to have to face direlectric failures alone, thus the forum; where we are all tuned into the same wavelength as it were.
It is possible that you will get an inspirational stroke of lightning and determine what the flux happened so that you can insulate yourself from the dark forces.
The dealer would love to charge you mega bucks for something simple. This is wire they are in this field of business. I dont think that they have the capacity to do otherwise, so to shield yourself; it is important overcome your relutance and get under the hood now and then. Dont be a frayed to conduct a battery of tests to scope out the problem in your ohm car. Me for one, I re- coil at the thought of going to the dealer and getting a large shock, this is crystal clear.

These are the thoughts that sparked this comment as I was conducting a little self study of that lil light bulb in my head.
