My HD10 fan seems to come on a lot with no real workout after about 2-3 minutes. Curious to see if it’s just me or do others experience the same thing. 4 bars on the heat gauge after a few minutes the fan comes on. Bars drop to down to 3 then back to 4 almost as soon as fan shuts off and so on and so on. In winter just putting around.

Have you checked the coolant level in the bottle, if its low you may have had an air bubble in the system that has now worked itself out?🤔

I feel like there is no rhyme or reason to when it comes on with mine. It was the same with my outlander so I figure it is normal

I tend to use it to my advantage... Mostly in the winter months... We'll just say, when I need to "find a spot"..... It's behind that right front wheel.... "Ahh.... nice and warm"... 😉

But now that I think about it? I wonder if that's why my right front axle (CV) went out???
