    The controller for the fan is located in the black plastic outlet duct mounted to the passenger side of the HV battery.

    Also, there should be a related code.

    No codes… unless the battery is allowed to reach over 125f… in which a code for high battery temp is set…
    Thanks

    I believe that is the fan rectifier, and seems to work correctly as the app is able to vary the fan speed. Issue is … the battery temp sensors are reporting the temperature… but something is failing to turn on the fan. App will do all this…thus implying all parts are working. Appears the ecu may have incorrect or no temperature kick on setting in place. I will however take a closer look at that outlet duct component you are referring to.

    Thank You
    Frank
