Got a weird problem with my engine fan and cabin fan. I know that when the engine is hot and I turn off the engine, the engine fan will continue to blow for awhile until the engine cools down a little bit. Yesterday I turned off the car but had also left the fan **** on high. When I returned to my car about 1 1/2 hours later, the engine fan was still running and so was the fan inside the car. Is this a fuse/relay issue or something electronic. Any help is appreciated.

 

I would start by having the codes pulled on all systems.

 

I just read about this in the manual the other night, approx. 50 minutes after turning off the car and using the AC, the fan will come on to clear out and evaporate any condensation in the lines.

pg 72...
Passenger compartment blower
Approximately 50 minutes after the ignition is turned off, the blower may come on automatically, and run for seven minutes, to remove condensation in the A/C evaporator.

 

It's called afterblow and does what was posted above.

This is three posts by you in three days with the complete incorrect answer, you should not be a mod.

However, if you do stay as a moderator, MODERATE, don't post technical answers as every one seems to be wrong. You're giving wrong advice to newbies and perhaps them spending their money when it's not necessary

 

First off if you are only here to Flame Leave!!!
Second read the first line again!!!!
He said engine cooling fan and cabin fan!!!
The engine cooling fan doesn't come on as part of the afterblow function.
The cabin fan is the only one that comes on as the afterblow function.

This is the second time you have gine wrong advise in the same day!

Maybe you need to freshen up your reading skills?

 

lol, get'em tech

 

tech I must be honest with you. Ex volvo master certified volvo technician here. The engine fan is supposed to run up to 75 minutes after the vehicle has shut off. Perfectly normal situation here.

 

But the both fans will not run for 75 minutes straight. Thats my point. I am a Ex master as well.
The cooling fan can come on up to 75 minutes if needed but both rad and climate fans will not both run at the same time.

 

Tech, I am not sure how long ago you were one, but I remeber when the S60's first came out, everyone questioned this and through our reasearch we found that both ARE supposed to run, but a set in VIDA to run no longer than a 75 minute duration.

 

I left the Dealer 3 years ago and still work on Volvo's every day. The outside cooling fan never comes on and runs when the "Afterblow" is runnning. Only the cabin fan runs. And this is in Florida.

 

Soooooo, any answer? because now my cooling fan is stuck on! recommendations? Thanks
