[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 1368021, member: 615"] Don't know what happens when you're running the fans constantly with the engine idling for long periods of time? May be using more watts then the charging system can put out at idle. Too bad you can't switch off the headlights under those conditions. When the ambient temp is above a 100 degF and the air is thinner at altitude, the fans probably don't cool as efficiently and have to run a lot more. Did it crank well indicating a strong battery after cool down? [/QUOTE]
