1995 4.0 L XJ sport
According to dashboard Temperature gauge the auxiliary fan does not activate until the temperature reaches red line when at idle or stop and go driving. Cool just fine when driving at highway speed’s even as low as 40 miles an hour. I recal seeing it get up there periodically in the past but hadn’t noticed it being this regular.
Replaced the pump, thermostat, and the CTS. I also switched around the relays with a matching one until the new one I ordered arrives. Hoses on both sides of the housing are hot so coolant seems to be flowing. One suggestion I saw was to was considering getting a laser temp thermometer to test the temp at the thermostat housing since the dash gauge an be unreliable in XJs. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.
