    v6 fan swap , temp adjustment

    have a 2013 ram 5.7(well the wife does)lol . did the v6 e-fan swap . still has the factory 195 t-stat . wanted to change the turn on temp so it doesn't have to get up to 225 before the fan kicks on . any help would be greatly appreciated !

    Read your stock tune. Save a copy for backup purposes. Open your tune file in the VCM Editor.

    Navigate to SYSTEM-FANS

    IIRC, On the left side you will see two boxes with temperatures. One will be the Fan-On Temp and the other will be the Fan-Off Temp. Set them to you liking.

    Save the tune that you edited and flash it back to the truck and test.

    This my Ram with the 203* thermostat, I recommend setting these temps 2-3* above the thermostat temps, or the fan will fight with the thermostat.
