    Hello po mga ka-tsikot. Baguhan lang po ako sa mga kotse. Bumili lang po ako ng second hand na toyota altis 2011. Napansin po nung kasama ko na agad nakabukas ung radiator fan ko pagka-on ko ng engine. Hindi po ba dapat ganun? Nag-research ako may nabasa ako na kapag mainit na daw ung radiator dun palang dapat siya iikot. Ganun po ba sa lahat ng kotse? If hindi po, masama ba na naka-on agad siya? Mahal po ba ipaayos un? Thanks po sa mga tutulong.

    my guess is, the previous owner bypassed the thermostat.
    just bring it to a shop and ask them to re-connect it to the thermostat.
    if the thermostat is missing or defective, you will have to buy a replacement.

    thanks po sa advice. masama po ba na iwan siyang ganun? hindi ba mas okay na gumagana na agad ung fan para di na talaga siya uminit?

    You can keep as is. It will not harm your radiator. Added electrical load nga lang sya. Parang electric fan na naiwan nakabukas sa kwarto na walang tao.

    it won't really damage your car but it'll take longer for the vehicle's engine to reach optimum operating temperature w/c will always translate to a slight dip in your ride's efficiency

    The sensor that dictates when the fan should engage. I doubt it's an expensive part. Just take it to an electrical shop so they can determine if that is really the cause then buy the part needed.

    I'd recommend you rectify it.

    'buti na lang, nagbabakasyon pa yung terminator dito.

    "...pag music lang ang gusto mo..." what's the connection, po? i don't see the logic.

    I'd hazard a guess ...

    The fan was wired on the ACC circuit which also runs the stereo. Hence, during stereo use, without engine running, the battery is also supplying power to the fan, discharging the battery a lot faster.
