That probably explains why the car still gets hot in traffic. Interesting though its not all the time. Parked in a lot, idling with the top up and AC on while it was 85F and the car cooled down to 193. So the one fan does an ok job.

Time to look into replacing/repairing the fan. Hoping its the resistor fix.

Also looks like the bumper is coming off again anyways, so I'll be adding the mesh.

And because more switches are always fun and I watch my temperature like a hawk anyways I'll add a manual toggle switch for the high fan setting.
My driver side fan failed me at around 120K. I opted to replace both fans... coming from a car with around 65K. I've the OG fan and housing if you need it. Likely you need just the fan... as you've the housing. Let me know and we'll work it out.
