Anyone else have any issues with their fans not coming on with the car running and turned off? Was driving it for about 5 minutes or so and all temps went up real fast and car went into limp mode.
I asked a friend of mine and he said check the 50 amp red fuses so I did and they are good. Next will be the relay switch. I don’t know witch one it is though. owners Manuel is no help. I was able to clear other codes but this one remains till the car is completely cooled down so I’m assuming it has todo with the fans.
Just curious if anyone else had experience with this or has the knowledge on this topic?
Trying to avoid going to the dealership but if I have to I will.

Does it fall under your 3/36 warranty?

I will find out today. Gonna Call SRT first to find out.
3yr/36 already past. But I believe that is just for the power train warranty.

You can find more info, in the service manual.

I posted links, to various year HC, in the WIKI and maintenance sections.

There are troubleshooting guides, in most sections.

Went to see m guy at the dealership this morning and it’s either the relay switch/fuse, power/ground connections or fans.
Gonna bring it to him tomorrow. Said it’s really easy to figure it out. 30 minutes or so.

He should be able to hook it up to the WyTech and ping each of those, for open, or short.

Keep us posted.

Update.... went to the dealer this morning and fans are all good. Called SRT AutoWorks this morning and we believe it’s the MAP sensors that are putting up this code. So new map sensors and a new 180 degree thermostat will be installed to fix the issue.
