Re: Dumb Climate Control Question

Sounds like you gota bad switch if the fan is still running when off you could replace it. Or until then try to find and pull the fuse or pop the hood and disconnect the wire going to the fan motor.

Re: Dumb Climate Control Question

moving the lever all the way to the left SHOULD turn the fan off and kind of stop the airflow. now if only there was a way to shut off the coolant flow from the inside without adding another control

Re: Dumb Climate Control Question

similar problem. mine will go off (i think) but air still gently blows through depending on driving speed. is that the same problem?
