Ok folks, lately my car has been having a cooling issue. This all started after I had my alternator replaced, but I am thinking it may just be a coincidence as far as timing is concerned.
What will happen, is sometimes, my car will begin to run well past the 190 degree mark on the temp gauge. In fact, the fans wont kick on until the gauge hits about half way between 190 and 260.
Now, the fans work fine, and I replaced the Coolant Temp Sensor, thinking that might be part of the problem.
Here is another interesting thing. When this is happening, if I turn on the AC to get the fans turning, it doesn't blow cold air.
Then I will here a click like sound coming from under the hood, and suddenly it starts blowing ice cold air, and the car temp is back where it should be.
Anyone have any thoughts?
