Hello, I have installed it on a 89 dodge dynasty. I'm not where happy
with it since i donot feel the car is warmer (inside) when i walked in.
I think it is good to run the car earlier so you donot need to heat up
the enigne. Try to get a longer range ones with 4 bottons if you can.
At one time i observed flaw with it but it happened just one time.on
this specific case, eventough the car started up fine, it cranked
again. I tried to repeat this many other times and it did not happen
again.
PS: be sure they connected right,and your fan works if you left the car
running. check it. (there are more than one accessory cables and you
need to decide which one is fan, blower motor). Initially i connected
it to radio instead of fan. (i know it is not very wise)
It is cool to keep the car runnign when you leave it for aobut 5-10
minutes. otherwise it cools down very fast when you have teen
temperarture outside.
