They ran hot. The ones i saw cracked had cronic coolant leaks at the water pump and plastic water outlet, causing low coolant and a cooling system unable to hold pressure, the engine gets hotter especially if its run like this repeatedly while putting off repairs.
@@Nova.1971 ok it's not giving me any reason why the the weather pack connector fails but it appears to be a common issue so your on the right track, just replace the connector and you should be good to go
@@garythegear Thanks Gary it's car guys like you that help out and make this hobby fun. I appreciate the time you took to look this up. Once again a big Thank-you......Cheers Mike
@@Nova.1971 hey no worries Mike it only takes a second to look it up , most shops have software programs they use , we have both pro demand and identifix here and there extremely helpful in diagnosing issues, I just didn't want to see your new connector burn also, sometimes electrical issues on these new cars are the worst , makes us appreciate our old rides don't it , take care
I DROVE 40 MILES , THE ENGINE WAS EXTREMELY HOT, BUT THE FAN WASN'T ON. DESPITE THE TEMP. ,THE CAR'S DRIVEABILITY WAS GREAT. I WAS WONDERING IF THIS IS NORMAL? . ALSO, I WAITED AT LEAST 30 MINUTES & THE FAN WASN'T HEARD. AFTERWARDS, I FINISHED MY DRIVE HOME ANOTHER 50 MILES - SAME SITUATION. SCAN TOOL SHOWED ECT 203F / IAT 113F (AMBIENT @ 65F)
