Radiator Fan Won't Turn Off: 2014 - 2019 Silverado & Sierra: Bad Coolant Temperature Sensor Replaced
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2024
- Welcome back to the channel! In this video Sean goes over why the radiator fan won't turn off on your 2014 - 2019 Chevy Silverado or GMC Sierra.
Thermostat: amzn.to/333Vrzl - Temperature Sensor: amzn.to/3q915bY
(GM Thermostat Part Number: 12674639) (GM Coolant Temp Sensor Part Number: 12608814)
Sean informs you that the coolant temperature sensor on your truck may have gone bad, and will need to be replaced before your radiator fan begins to operate like normal again. (GM Coolant Temp Sensor Part Number: 12608814)
Linked below are two comparable sensors to pick from, and everything you will need to get this job done. (FYI, “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.”)
1.) ACDelco, 213-4514 Professional Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor:
amzn.to/2PAmWd7
2.) Delphi, TS10076 Coolant Temperature Sensor:
amzn.to/3gOMKNL
If this doesn't fix the problem, most likely your thermostat has also gone bad. Shortly after replacing the coolant temperature sensor on our truck, the problem came back, and we decided to replace the thermostat. Once replacing the thermostat, we have had no issues. Linked below is the three-video playlist that shows how the thermostat is replaced and how to trouble shoot any common issues:
NEW VIDEO: • Radiator Fan Won't Tur...
PLAYLIST: • Radiator Fan Won't Tur...
🚨 Note 🚨 - If you have replaced both the sensor and the thermostat and your truck continues to have this issue follow the steps below: 👇
1. Remove the teflon tape used on the sensor. This can sometimes cause the sensor to read improperly, so it's better to not use it.
2. Disconnect your battery for ten minutes. This will reset your trucks computer and let it read your new components correctly.
Remember, this is at your own risk. These steps have helped fix multiple trucks but is not guaranteed to fix all every truck. We recommend having your truck diagnosed by a professional.

Radiator Fan Won't Turn Off? GUARANTEED FIX: th-cam.com/video/7gKbLHhD1cw/w-d-xo.html
My mechanic tried to make $250 to change the thermostat. The fan did go off it did stop.
Thank you so much for the help! Saved me labor costs for a mechanic on my 2015 Tahoe. The hardest part was getting the clip off of the sensor. Great video man!
Thanks Kyle! Glad we could help.🙌
Changed it turned the truck on the fan was still blowing hard and read the comments and disconnected the negative and positive for about 4 minutes reconnected them and went back to normal thank for this guy and the people in the comments !!
Glad it worked out for you!
This happened to me over the weekend, I decided to replace both the sensor and thermostat. In my situation, I lost about a half gallon of antifreeze. Total cost at Auto Zone for the sensor, thermostat and a gallon of antifreeze was $110. Tools/Supplies were Channel Locks for the hose clamps, 19mm deep socket for the Sensor, 10mm socket for the thermostat and negative battery terminal, old towel to absorb antifreeze spillage, and funnel for reservoir to add new antifreeze. The sensor came with an adequate amount of Teflon Tape, so I didn't add more. After laying out the needed tools, it took less than 30 minutes to complete the job. This task is easier than an oil change.
Glad we could help out. 🤙
Awesome video and thank you. Picked up the sensor last night on way home from office Christmas party and in 20 minutes this morning had it in and did a test drive….it worked! $38.88 cost including a 19 mm deep socket.
Glad to hear everything worked out well for you!
Another TH-cam video that solves the issue. Clear, concise and a savings to the bank account. Gives a guy the confidence to try himself and avoid a trip to a mechanic.
Great job!
Hey Mike, glad you enjoyed the video. If you try it, let us know how it works out for you! Also, we have a few more videos that might help you out with your truck. Don't hesitate to check them out!
@@TheBrothersWorkshop From the moment I noticed the problem, found your video, bought the part and spent 15 minutes fixing the problem. This was all last night in the dark. It's running smooth today. Watched your other videos and if another issue arises, it appears that replacing the thermostat is about as simple!
In short, your solution worked awesome!
Glad to hear it! 🙌
It worked! This is the first time I fixed my own vehicle, your channel is very informative, thanks so much!
That's really cool to hear! That means a lot. It also goes to show that my goofy saying is correct! "A can do attitude can do anything!!" 😁😁
This video was spot on! Had my problem fixed in 20 minutes after I got home with the part & socket I needed
Hey! We're glad that this video helped you out.
@TheBrothersWorkshop . Why wouldn't my upper hose have pressure in it if it's just the sensor?
I have plenty of heat too.
I changed both sensor and thermostat my first time and your videos help me a lot!! no issues after parts were replaced. thank You!!!!
Glad to hear that! 🙌
I did this and still not working!! Need help 🥹🥹
Exactly the problem I am experiencing with my 2014 Silverado. Now, I know what to do to fix it and save money I don't have to spend! Thanks for the video, nice job!
Glad to help!!
Thank you! I showed this to my husband and we were able to fix the problem. 🥰
Glad we could help!!
I purchased the parts on Amazon and then took the advice in the comments of disconnecting the negative battery cable for 5 minutes and that fixed my issue of No AC and fan continually running. So then I had to go back to Amazon and cancel my order. TH-cam is the best.
If you did not replace the parts, your issues WILL RETURN, within a few days. Please follow our instructions in the newest video we made about this topic. We detail why the issue will return if you fail to replace the defective parts. I've linked it here for you: th-cam.com/video/7gKbLHhD1cw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LyV9pvN42YhHa8i1
I got my 2017 Silverado LTZ in 2016.Yesterday my fan stayed on and the AC stopped working. I followed both links. I changed out the sensor, thermostat and hose and I'm back on the road. A neighborhood mechanic said $150 in labor to do it. I just had back surgery but I did it myself. You made it very simple and I thank you Sir !
I'm glad that this video helped you out! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave the feedback. 🙌
What did you do when the A/C stopped working? Replacing both the sensor and thermostat fixed my fan from running, but now my A/C stopped working. 🤦♀️
Omg ! I'm not sure what the problem is with your AC. I did replace the sensor and the thermostat though. Its been working fine. I'm curious though why your Ac stopped. I'm in Arizona and we aren't using AC! Where are you ? Lol
Great video! Helped me solved the issue. One recommendation, remove the cap of the coolant reservoir to remove pressure from the system. You will still lose coolant but you are less likely to take coolant to the face ore get it all over everything!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Much appreciated man, this is literally happening to my 2017 Sierra, i changed the thermostat and the fan still kept running, now i know what the issue!
Glad we could help. Follow these little tips as well! th-cam.com/video/wed9eZxPwsQ/w-d-xo.html
Thanks guys, had the same problem with my truck, followed your instructions a nd it worked perfectly. I can't even imagine what a dealership would have charged if I had went that route!!
Thanks man! I'm thinking the dealership would charge a few hundred dollars. Glad I could help you out!
I fixed my fan radiator on my 2014 Chevy Silverado 6 months ago because it wouldn’t shut off even after the truck was turned off. And I’m back on TH-cam trying to figure out why it’s not working again. Very helpful video thank you.
Glad we could help Felix!
so replacing this what he did worked? i have the same problem for my gmc sierra 2014
This is such a great video. I used it and your other one to replace the thermostat, and the temp sensor in my 2015 silverado when the fan wouldn't turn off, and the gauge wound get over 160. So I think the trick of whole issue is to replace BOTH, and to unhook the battery during the process to reset. All three worked for me. Thanks again for a great set of videos.
We really appreciate that! We're glad our videos helped out!!
This is what we had to do. After replacing both the fan was still running and the temperature gauge on the dash was stuck on 160°. Once we unhooked the battery it reset and the fan cut off and the dash temperature gauge began to work.
@@TheBrothersWorkshop hey man i just replace my temperature sensor but fan still on when I turn the truck off do you think I should unhook the battery or will be something else, thanks for the video
The video did help a lot. So thank you! The only thing I would add is that on a 2016 Chevy Tahoe, the ECT Sensor is in a very tight place next to the thermostat. It is very difficult to get the harness cap off the sensor. Because the area was small to work in it wasn't easy to remove the harness. There is a light colored plastic clip that needs to be removed first so you can pinch the small black release tab so the harness cap separates from the sensor. Otherwise, in a tight area not knowing this you could damage the harness cap that snaps on to the sensor. I didn't know what to expect and was concerned to break the plastic. Had a mechanic friend help after many tries and then it was easy. But not knowing this made it difficult.
Thanks Kevin! If you have any other issues with this problem, I've linked two videos here for you:

I’m 63 years old. Recently retired govt worker. Married and a fixed income. Kinda grew up working in a neighbors gas station repair shop back in 70s . Learned a lot and even made a living at it there. But it’s been a long time since I picked up a ratchet under a hood. Wanting to save money I thought I’d give it a go . Thanks to your presentation and the Lords help it worked out fine. I also disconnected the battery after it didn’t work initially and then all was well. Thank you.
Hey George! Thank you for the kind words. Feed back like this is the motivation we need to keep making videos like this. If you have any more issues going forward, we have a trouble shooting video linked here: th-cam.com/video/wed9eZxPwsQ/w-d-xo.html
Great video! I’m probably the most mechanically un-inclined person I know and I just switched out my sensor on my 2016 Silverado. Thanks for posting!
I'm glad to hear that! We strive to make this as easy as possible. If you end up having issues, the video you just watched is one of a three part series. We remade the video, and all of the steps are listed within this video: th-cam.com/video/7gKbLHhD1cw/w-d-xo.html
Easy to follow and fixed immediately. I had to clear the codes after I replaced the sensor. Once I erased the codes, the fan was back to normal and the maintenance light was gone. Thanks for the video.
Glad we could help! 🙌
Thanks for the great video. I went ahead and just changed both at the same time, had 70$ in it and it took about 20 minutes. I didn’t even have permatex all over my hands after (cause it’s not needed) unlike the old cars I’ve wrenched on years ago. Took longer to open the pinch clamps.
Hey Joe, thanks for watching the video. Glad we could help and everything worked out for you!
Thanks for the video. I was ready to replace the thermostat when I saw your video and changed the sensor first. Worked like a charm!
Thanks for watching Christopher! Glad it helped out. If it stops for some reason remove the teflon tape.
If you do need to change your thermostat we have a video on how to, linked here: th-cam.com/video/WvLyBM8FHdM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, you have saved a lot for me and others greatly appreciate your knowledge and kindness to show us all !!
Glad to help!
Great video. It helped yesterday on my '14 GMC. The comment about removing the big wide intake helped, just two hose clamp fittings and two EGR clamps. A couple other symptoms were a check engine light coming on (don't know code, don't have a scanner), and my air conditioning only blew warm air when the coolant temp was 160. Seems good now. By the way, if you carefully remove the coolant fill cap on the left side of compartment, it'll depressurize it and hardly any coolant will come out when you pull the sensor out.
Hey Chuck! Thanks for watching the video. We're stoked it helped you. The AC blowing warm is an issue we had as well, and thanks for the tip on how to depressurize the lines!
Ive done the sensor and termostato change but my fans are still turning off after I turn my truck off what do y’all recommend me do also I’ve change the relay
I been having this for months on and off
@@ernestoguerrero326 clear the code, 128, it will lock in but no check engine light.
Great video. Easy changeout. Did it, and it worked, for a couple weeks until it happened again. Should i just switch out thw thermostat as well?
Thank you!! Saved me hundreds of dollars in mechanics fees
No problem at all! I'm glad we could help!! 🙂
Thank you so much for putting this video together. I just changed one on a 2016 suburban. So easy following your tutorial.
Thank you very much. I'm glad we could help!
Thank you. This just happened to my 2015 Silverado last night.
Make sure you disconnect the negative battery terminal for about 30 seconds and then reconnect. It will allow your gauges to all reset. Once I did it with mine, the band shut off in the gauge worked.
Good video
Thanks for the tip RC.
I did my truck this morning and once I finished started the truck the fan was still running so I disconnected the negative cable and it work fine! Here a FYI if you’ve had this issue on the road and can’t figure out if you need a tow truck just disconnect the negative cable it will reset your computer and the temperature gauge will start working again for about a hour but replace the part like this video shows and keep riding.👍🏆
Funny thing is, disconnecting the battery terminal for a few seconds stops the fan issue for me anywhere from a day to MONTHS. I'm obviously resetting something more than the gauges. Still, it comes back eventually. I can't help thinking it's not a sensor or thermostat "sticking" as that is mechanical, not electrical.
@@Crusty-eu8wj Same here. After replacing the sensor and thermostat(I disconnected the neg. battery lead while doing this)the problem stopped for several months and then began again. Now, after disconnecting the neg. lead, the fans might stay off after the key is turned off for a week and then the problem starts again.
@@Crusty-eu8wjmine is doing the same thing..did you ever figure out what was causing it to keep coming back?
Did exactly as you said while also loosening the cap on the coolant container and ALOT more coolant came out. Also had the negative battery unplugged while doing this . Installed new CTS and reconnected everything, turned on my truck and everything fixed. Let it run for a bit then drove it around. Thanks for your help man. I greatly appreciate it.
Glad we could help out. How is your truck doing besides this issue?
@@TheBrothersWorkshop I did that on a Friday night . Only drove about 30 miles on the weekend. Monday on the way to work , started again doing the same thing. Came home replaced the thermostat , reset the batter and thankfully no more issues. I followed your other vid and liked as well. Big thanks guys. Save me a couple hundred or more easily. Much love from Texas
Thank you brother. 2014 LTZ, and the little things are slowly appearing. Glad you took the time to share all the details. I'm subscribed..
Very glad to have been able to help. If you need anything in the future, check out our pinned comments. It has our detailed video about troubleshooting any issues that my come up down the road.
Yessir it did it. Disconnect the ground cable first yooo.
Your videos have given me hope for doing my own work on my 2016 lol I have no confidence in myself in tearing into anything like this but I’m having the same problem with my truck as soon as it hit 100k so I’m gonna try the sensor tomorrow and then the thermostat if that doesn’t work. Thanks for the videos!!!
Eric, all you need is a can do attitude. You got this bro! We felt the same way at first, and that's totally normal.
Well I replaced both the sensor and the thermostat and it still didn’t fix the problem. Temp gauge still doesn’t register and as soon as I turn the key forward the fans immediately kick on high even after sitting all night. Not sure what to do at this point
Well as I started reading comments on here I tried the battery disconnect like others were doing and that fixed the problem so everything’s good!
I have 2014 Silverado , changed my cooling temperature sensor and it worked 👍...thank you 💯💯
Glad we could help! 🙌
Excellent video… really helped me diagnose the problem and not screw up
Glad we could help!
Great video. Did it in 20 minutes. The only thing that was missing from the video was how to shut the fan off so the work can be done. I had to remove the fan’s fuse. I could have disconnected the battery, but the fuse was easier and quicker. Great video still! Thanks!
Hey Gail! We're glad you found the video helpful. Typically we found that if the fan is still running when the vehicle is off, turning the truck on and off again will stop the fan. Also, if the issue starts again, you will need to disconnect the battery to reset the trucks computer. The truck will then read all of the new components correctly. It doesn't happen all of the time, but sometimes it's necessary. Also, teflon tape can sometimes make the sensor miss-read. Removing that can also help fix any further issues. Have a great day and thanks for watching! 🙂
@@TheBrothersWorkshop yeah i turned my truck on and then turned it off and the fan turned off too. Thanks
I’ve put 2 different sensors on my 2015 Tahoe an it will do good for a week or so then the temp gauge will stop reading an fan won’t kick off, I’ll have to undo the battery terminal then hook back up it will do ok for a few days, what could be the issue
This problem just happened to my wife and i tonight. All the symptoms. Great video. Now i know how to fix it!
Good luck! It's an easy fix.
This video helped me tremendously on my 2015 Silverado!! Thanks so much

It’s a lot easier to replace, if you remove the air intake assembly, first. It takes less than a minutes to remove it. It also allows you to clean your throttle body (if needed) and any coolant that gets spilled on the front cover during sensor replacement.
Thanks for the heads up Josh!
If you let the vehicle cool down and then you can remove the radiator cap or the coolant reservoir cap whichever one your particular vehicle happens to have. By doing this you don't have to worry about any fluids coming gushing out from underneath that sensor. As a result you don't have to worry about the anti-freeze harming any Electronics such as wire connectors, alternator, distributor cap if applicable, Etc.
@@michaelrehkop4817Coolant is going to flow out, as soon as you remove that sensor, regardless of whether the system has pressure on it or not. Besides, it ain’t like coolant is going to hurt the alternator or any other part of the electrical system, anyway. It’s got sealed connectors.
Nothing came out when I changed mine. Taking the I take would just be more work. 19mm deepsocket on extension no problem. Literally took all of 5 minutes to change mine. Took longer stuffing rags all over the place in case it did shoot out.
Sometimes after swapping the faulty temperature sending unit, the fans may continue to run full blast for a few driving cycles if it threw a code. To speed that along so you don't have to wait the few driving cycles for the code to clear, unhook the negative cable from the battery for 10 minutes to reset the PCM while you're swapping out the sensor. It will clear the code and will run normally the next time you start it, instead of two or three times later.
You are correct, we did a follow up video explaining that: th-cam.com/video/wed9eZxPwsQ/w-d-xo.html
I’ll will try that
After replacing the faulty temperature, the temperature gage starting going up as soon as I start the car, any suggestions why
Would turning the engine on and off 3 times work?
Great tip! Thank you!
Had to change both but this video was very helpful. Appreciate it!!!
Glad it helped!🤙
Great video. Disconnecting both battery cables fixed it for me. Thanks everyone. Crazy
No problem! Check out our troubleshooting video if you need anything else: th-cam.com/video/wed9eZxPwsQ/w-d-xo.html
Let the engine cool down some first and then remove pressure in coolant system via radiator cap or coolant reservoir cap so that no coolant spurts out onto electronics like coil pack, distributor cap (if applicable), alternator, electrical connectors.
Thanks for the tip!
How do you remove the pressure from it
@@gustavodelgeh3580 let your truck cool off and remove the cap from the coolant tank
I replaced the sensor and thermostat...it still stayed on. Once i disconnected the battery it was good to go!. I might have not needed a thermostat to begin with.
You never know, but it's always good to replace it just in cases.
I did the same thanks! Headache !
This comment literally needs to be pinned, mine was still running as well I read this comment and tried it out and now my truck is good. Thank you
I changed both sensor and thermostat and the fan still comes on. I took cable off battery several times.. any tips?
@@walkerhomestead6853 did you try just removing the positive?
This was exactly what I needed. Thank you.
No problem! 🙌
Thank you for the video. Was for sure helpful!!! I wouldn’t have known had I not searched TH-cam and found this video. Also provided the secondary issue that night happens which did happen for y’all. Once I get the part and put it in I’ll see if then thermostat needs to be replaced as well.
We ended up replacing both parts. Just a side note, you don't have to wrap the sensor with teflon tape. It may cause an issue with grounding. Also, disconnecting the battery will help your computer reset and.read the new equipment correctly. Good luck!
Is it bad if I drive like this for a few days till I can get it fixed ?
Hey Raul, honestly I don't know how bad it is to drive while truck is doing this. If it makes you feel better I drove for a few days before I could fix it.
If you changed the sensor and this issue still occurs, you will need to change the thermostat. I've linked two videos for you below. The first is a trouble shooting video. The second shows in detail how to replace the thermostat. 👇

Dude...that was it! Sweet. Tell me...something else weird happened though....my A/C started working again. Could disconnecting the battery reset something so that now my A/C works again?
All of this was just awesome! Thank you so much for this video.
Had this exact problem on the way home today. Switched this out and seems to have fixed it! Thanks for the video!!
I just switched out minds about five minutes ago the fans are still on high How long does it take to go away thanks in advance

Worked like a charm. Thanks, broski. Looking forward to the next project...sort of.
Glad to hear it! 🙌
This makes sense and easy to follow, good job. Thanks
Glad to hear that Mark! Thanks for watching!!
Got her done! Appreciate the video. I wanted to take off the intake but couldn't figure out the egr connections and didn't want to break the plastic. The wiring conduit leading up to. The sensor was already breaking off to touch. Ol' trucka has 245K on her.
Glad we could help you out. Hopefully you can get another 245k out of her!
Thanks for the help!! Problem started yesterday watched the video and was able to fix it today!!
Glad we could help!!
My truck was running low on coolant which tripped the sensor. After adding coolant I still didn’t have any change, but after reading these comments I disconnected the battery for 10 min and that fixed my problems.
I did buy a new temp sensor, but since I don’t need it now, ima leave in the glove box for now.
Thanks for the video guys!
I think you misunderstood. Disconnecting the battery is only done after you replace the thermostat and the temperature sensor. If you don't fix the issue, the problem will continue. Eventually your computer will realize that this issue is still going on and you'll be back to square one.
@@TheBrothersWorkshop Thank you. But my problem with running fan has stopped, but I still have the sensor if case things go bad again

Worked with my Tahoe 2016, thank you! 😃 , tip… you need to drive couple minutes until the computer read the new sensor and you good to go ;) ( because at first I changed it on my driveway and the problem hasn’t change , after 10 minutes driving, worked hehe 🙏🏻)
Glad to hear we could help you out Eduardo. We have heard that helps. Ours on the other hand worked right away. Just goes to show you every truck is slightly different.
Thanks!!
This video was really helpful
Glad to hear that. 🙌
Thx guys my fan recently started this followed your guidelines and replaced sensor, disconnected battery for 30 seconds and worked like a charm. Saved me a trip to the dealer.
Glad to hear you got it working properly again! Thanks for stopping by and watching the video.
Awesome video. Mine just started doing that. Thank you
No problem! 🙌

Thank you so much, quick and easy after watching the video.
Glad we could help!
Thanks for the video. My 2016 chevy cts went out as soon as i got home at 11pm. The fans kept running for like 5 mins then turn off, so i checked this video out and i found out that it was my cts so i went to my autozone bought it put it on and bammm, good to go. Needed my truck for work, so i needed to change it lol. Thanks alot man
No problem! Don't forget to reset the computer by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery.
Great video! I changed both of them out. Thank you!

Thanks for this post. Changed the sensor and thermostat fan still on. Come back in and read the comments went back out took the pos. cable off everything was fine.
Awesome! 🙌🤙
Super helpful thank you
Great Video thank you very much! I was lucky that my truck was sitting overnight so there was no pressure in the system. I actually stuffed rags everywhere so that I would not have any coolant all over. But when I slowly loosened and removed the sensor I was waiting for the gusher, but nope, the level of coolant is just below the opening. Thanks again for making it easier and also for telling what size socket it used. I am waiting for the part to come in, so i took the old one out already!
I'm really glad we could help. If you have any issues we have a troubleshooting video linked in the description and pinned in the comments. 😁🙌
Disconnecting the battery worked for me also…cheers to you all
No problem! Glad we could help!!
Problem solved! Thanks for the video!
Glad to hear it! 🤙
Same issue on mine. Changed out the sensor and started it up again, heard the fan running loud again and drove it down the block for a bit. Fan kept blowing after turning engine off. Decided to disconnect the battery as others have done here and reconnected. Fired her up and the fan is no longer blowing hard and the temperature is back to normal. Thank you!
Glad could help!!
Great video sir !! I had to disconnect the battery and replace both parts the thermostat and temperature sensor and it is running back to normal!! Thanks 😎🤙🏽

We recommend replacing the thermostat and the sensor together. I've linked two other videos for you below. 👇

@@TheBrothersWorkshop GRRRRRRRR.... Wish that had been said in the 1st video... LOL... Replaced the Temperature sensor.. Still had problem.. Doing thermostat this evening. THANK YOU AGAIN for the great videos
It was said at the end of the video. The problem is it could be one, the other, or both. It's hard to tell because no codes are thrown.
Thanks for sharing this buddy.
No problem thanks for watching! 🤙

11/13/23 very helpful video. Thank you. I had the same problem fan stood on 5-10 min after shutting truck off with check engine light on.
Changed the temperature sensor, and disconnected the battery. Started up, temp gauge works normal, and fan doesn’t come on after turning truck off. No check engine light. We good! Thank you again
I'm glad we could help!! It's such an easy fix, I'm glad people can fix this themselves rather than go to the dealership.
