Only when stuck in traffic, my temp gauge creeps up but the cooling fan wont kick in... I am forced to turn the heater on so I can get the engine temperature down so I wont damage the engine.
The thing is that the fan DOES turn on and runs for about 15 minutes like its supposed to when hot once I turn the car OFF, so it seems that the car DOES know that its hot.
My question is whats preventing the fan from turning on when idling hot, but it works fine once the car is shut off??
All is fine otherwise... any ideas would help. Thanks!
