Author Message   03buellfbolt Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 08:44 pm:        Hey guys, I have a question. I own a 03 XB9R. How long should it take for the fan to come on once I start it and get it running? I have let it idle for about 5mins and still no fan? can someone anwser this for me? Thanks, Tye   Diablobrian Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 08:56 pm:        Don't worry. It can take a while to come on, depending on ambient temperature. If it doesn't come on after a spirited ride then you may have a problem. The temp sensor is buried deep in the rear head.   03buellfbolt Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 08:59 pm:        anyone? I went for about a 2 min drive still no fan?   03buellfbolt Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 08:59 pm:        thanks diablo   Americanmadexb Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 09:07 pm:        usually takes a good steady 10-15 min ride for mine to come on in 65-70 degree weather!   Glitch Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 09:19 pm:        You want your fan to come on? Go out tomorrow and get stuck in traffic.   Buellgirlie Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 09:34 pm:        dont worry if your fan doesnt come on. it has a pretty fancy sensor and there's a certain "turn-on" temp while its running and another one for when its shut down. well, actually, worry if it NEVER comes on. but dont worry if it doesnt come on every time!

Seems to be more smoother, a little more "pep", and definetly cooler.   Barker Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 10:04 pm:        My 2003 XB9R has always needed a good little run for 10 minutes plus before the fan kicks on (syn and conventional fluids.) Syn3 a little less fan action.
