Durametric Fan question

[dammad]

I was busy today trying to resolve my convertible top problems.

I noticed two things while I had the durametric connected.

- My 99 996 has been running hot recently so I wanted to do an activation/command in Durametric to check that high-speed was working on the coolant fans. I only found one activation 'Fan', but when I start it I only get low-speed. Is there a way in Durametric to turn on high-speed?

- I looked for faults and found a tiptronic fault: Governor 0x0207. I reset the code to see it will come back. Seems to be running okay.

Dammad.

I'll check my Durametric next time I have it on there but I seem to remember the option to activate stage 2 fans in there.

Another way to manually activate the stage two fans is just to remove your stage 1 fan relays. The stage 2 fans will click on and off every few minutes IIRC.

Of course, don't run the car like this, but just use this if you want to test that your fans are working.

If you turn on the A/C don't the fans run on high speed?

stage 1 for A/C unless certain conditions apply...

Durametric can activate stage 2 fan speed.

I looked through my durametric, but I can't find any way to enable the stage 2 fans. the line item below reads "RPM control stage 2" but it just causes the rev counter to move, nothing on the fans.

I pulled out the 2 low speed fans and the fans did come on/off after a while, but didn't seem much faster than the low speed ones I get with A/C engaged.
