Problem with Fan always on (MY06+ S2000)

Hey I have a base tune from my tuner and a final tune.
However when I load my final tune the fan stays on constantly with the key in the ignition.

This goes away if I load the Hondata KW tune or the base tune.
Please have a look at the kals. The fan is set on at 168 degree on both kals.

the fan is set to come on too early. change it to 190 or 195.

its set to 168 so it will be on all the time when the car is warmed up

It doesnt matter what I set it to in the final tune. It will still run when the key is in and the ect is only 100 degrees or less.

Like i said the fan only kicks in at 168 on the base tune. which is how i would like it on my final tune.

I set it to 168 to match my lower temp thermostat.

So you see no other problems with the kal?

We also advise against using colder thermostats.

Post your calibration and a datalog showing the problem.
