I drive a 2014 Silverado 1500LT 5.3L V8
I noticed my radiator fans stayed on during my 20min drive to work, the ac was not on. temperature gauge did not move from 160*. After i parked and turned the truck of the fans still stayed on. So i started it back on for 20 sec. turned it off and the fans turned off. Another thing, i turned my ac to cold, but for some reason it doesn't get cold while the temp is at 160* and the fans are running non stop. I got home didn't mess with it, the next day everything was fine, ac was blowing cold, temp gauge actually read the temperature. the fans did not stay on. i get off from work and it starts doing the same thing. My brother said it might be a relay, i googled info on this and asked people and many said its probably a relay. i went to the auto-parts store told them what the issue was, and they sold me an ac control relay, which is #68 on the relay diagram on the fuse box. Has this happen to anyone else? my truck is no longer under warranty and i'm not trying to pay a lot of money to a mechanic unless i have to. any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Fyi i did a check engine light check at advance auto parts, they did a reset on my truck, i got home disconnected the battery and changed out the ac control relay. im waiting to see if it starts acting up again hopefully not.
