Hi
I've had a 2015 for about a week, but I don't know if it is normal that the main fan runs _all_ all the time the car is turned on or plugged in.
The temperatures are moderate (18 - 23C) (64-70F or so). The car is not hot, ambient. I turn it on, sitting still in Park, the fan comes on, it is louder than an ICE. If I plug in the Level 1 charger, the fan comes on immediately, sounds like an ICE going 4000rpm.
I know all about the lack on active cooling, but it seems crazy that just turning on the car makes the Fan go full tilt. Likewise, considering the very modest amount of power coming in with Level 1, why is the fan on immediately as long as the charger plug is inerted
Is this normal? I hope not.
If not, what is the next step?
Thanks
Kent
