It may be due to a loose circuit connection. You can try unplugging the fan's wiring harness and performing a separate power-off treatment. Additionally, this situation could also be caused by a damaged water temperature sensor or a stuck fan relay contact. Simply replacing it with a new one at a repair shop will suffice. The water temperature in the radiator hasn't cooled down yet: The water temperature in the radiator decreases slowly. When the engine is just turned off, the water temperature hasn't dropped yet, so the cooling fan will continue to work for a while before stopping. If the car has completely cooled down and the fan is still running continuously, it indicates a fault in the cooling fan assembly or the cooling fan circuit, and timely repair is recommended. Thermostat failure: Due to the thermostat, the temperature reaches the baseline but cannot send water to the radiator, or the amount of water sent is too little, causing the engine to overheat and the electric fan to keep running.

It's quite common for the car fan to keep running non-stop. If it's the AC fan, the issue might be that the AC is set too low or the control button is stuck and hasn't reset. I've also encountered problems with the fan relay sticking in the on position and failing to turn off. Additionally, a faulty thermostat can cause the fan to run unnecessarily, especially during hot summer days. Checking is simple: turn off the engine and wait a few minutes; if the fan doesn't stop, then there's definitely a problem. If not addressed promptly, the battery can drain quickly, making it difficult to start the car the next morning. I've had this issue with my previous car, and replacing the relay fixed it. It's advisable to regularly inspect the fan system during maintenance to prevent serious problems that could affect driving safety.

Does the Model 3 have a steering wheel heating function?

The Model 3 only has a steering wheel heating function in the Performance high-performance all-wheel-drive version. Below are the specific details about the steering wheel heating: 1. How to use it: The owner needs to straighten the steering wheel and touch the heating button below the steering wheel. This function can make the steering wheel warm in cold seasons, ensuring the driver no longer feels cold or uncomfortable when holding the wheel. 2. Principle: A layer of resistance wire is embedded inside the leather wrapping the steering wheel. The power line supplies electricity to the resistance wire through the part below the steering wheel connected to the rotating shaft. Most models with steering wheel heating focus on heating the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions of the steering wheel, which are the areas where hands grip.

What are the reasons for a car compressor having normal pressure but not cooling?

Car air conditioning compressor working but not cooling is mainly due to lack of refrigerant, damaged air conditioning flaps, dirty condenser, faulty throttle or expansion valve, aging or loose belts, water in the pipelines, etc. There are many reasons for car air conditioning not cooling, such as faulty interior temperature sensors or outdoor temperature sensors. Additional information: Car air conditioning generally requires refrigerant replenishment every 2~3 years, and some cars even need it annually. Even if the air conditioning is tightly sealed, refrigerant can still escape, especially if there are minor leaks in the air conditioning pipelines or condenser. Damage to the air conditioning flap motor is relatively rare, but when it occurs, it can be quite troublesome. The flap motor is usually located in the lower middle part of the dashboard and serves as the main switch for the air conditioning vents. If it fails, it means the switch is broken.
