Default Cool Product for your C5!

Is your C5 ready for the heat?
Hot weather is coming and maybe you have thought about getting a CoolIt High Speed Fan Controller but weren’t sure how well it would work. Now that we have sold quite a few of them we have been able to collect some feedback from some of our CoolIt customers for you. Here is what they said.

“Installed mine this morning. Here's my comments:
First of all the delivery time was great. Only 4 days.
Upon opening the package I could see that this was a real quality manufactured product. Having many years background in electro/mechanical manufactured products, I could see that this was not junk.
Easy installation. It only took me half an hour to install it this morning (15 minutes of that time was trying to find the 10mm nut from the ground screw that I dropped under the car).
Turned the key on and pushed the button & it worked great. Took it out into traffic, let the temp get up to 220 and pushed the button. Temp started to drop.
My hat's off to you guys for a great product at a good price.
Thanks! “

"I have been running this setup for a few months and no problems at all. I live in Florida and in stop and go traffic a lot. I enjoy the car much more not seeing my temps rise when in traffic. Easy to install and recommend it to anyone who would like to stop checking there temp gauge and just enjoy the ride."
Pewter2000C5Vert

I installed my V3 this morning and went out and tested it this afternoon. Warm weather today (mid 70's) in southern Az. so the radiator temp got to around 198 in city driving. I turned on the fans with the remote and the temp was soon down below 180. I also checked and fans when switched on via the Cool-It do continue to run above 35mph.
Nice product and looks like factory. Does what you say it will do!!!! Install is very neat and professional. I recommend it.”

I installed my V2 version yesterday, easy install and was very impressed with the quality of the cabling and components, best of all it works great just as advertised!”

I have one of these on my car and can tell you it makes a big difference. I took my car to Thunder Hill last year and this little gem allowed me to keep my temps low between runs.
Works like a champ and these guys stand behind everything they sell (I also run their FANGS on my C5Z).”

I ordered the Cool It harness from SacCityCorvette (they're in California) and I received it in 2 days (I'm in OKC). Really surprised that it got here so quick, but after what I'd read about SacCity, it seems to be more the norm than unusual. It was literally a 5 minute installation. I watched the install video prior to receiving the unit, so when it arrived, just popped the hood, removed the 2 components in the fuse box (#43 and #15), plugged the Cool It unit in, hooked up ground and was all done. Works awesome! Well done SacCityCorvette. A great quality product with great ease of use!! Highly recommended my Corvette brothers and sisters.

Ordered and received the coolit v3. I have to say it was the nicest made and easiest installed product I have bought from any vendor yet. Quality construction through and through. Directions on website clear. It was actually a relief to be able to buy and install a product without just A LITTLE TWEAKING to make it fit or work. Would wish they made more quality products!!

That’s why you should have a Cool It!
This is SacCityCorvette’s latest version of the CoolIt v2 and v3 Remote High Speed Fan Controller for your 1997-2004 C5 and C5 Zo6.

Now you can control your C5 Corvette's radiator high speed cooling fan with the simple push of a button on your wireless FOB, allowing you to control your radiator coolant temps. Now there is no need to pay for an expensive tune to change your fans on/off temperatures or to run your A/C to cool the engine, which also includes unnecessary wear and tear and fuel mileage loss.
The CoolIt v2 and v3 now run on their own circuit and will not interfere with the normal computer controlled operation of your cooling fans.
When you turn your Vette off, the CoolIt automatically turns off, so you don't have to worry about the fan staying on and running the battery down.

Installing the CoolIt v2 and v3 is a very simple, five minute, plug and play installation (see our online installation video). After you install the CoolIt v2 or v3, you will be able to turn on the right side cooling fan in high speed mode using a wireless FOB. This makes it perfect for when you are at the track and you want to cool down between runs, stuck in traffic, or idling in parades.

Have a Automatic Transmission? Because your transmission fluid runs through a cooler in the radiator, the CoolIt will even help keep your transmission running cooler too. By keeping your A4 cooler, the fluid won’t break down as fast, O-Rings and seals will last longer, and it will shift better. Maybe you have noticed that your transmission shifts better when it is cool compared to when it is hot. Especially sitting in traffic where A4 can really build heat! Remember, heat kills Automatics!
Only $119.95
Watch our installation video and see how easy it is to install the Cool It!

Here is a link with more detailed information and how to order!
http://www.saccitycorvette.com/COOLITv2.html





Also available is the New Hard Wire Coolit! It operates just like the Wireless Coolit but, instead of a FOB to turn it on/off it uses a switch and LED that you mount where you like. The LED shows you when the fan is running.
Only $119.95

If you have an automatic trans, you can keep the fluid and trans cool by running your radiator cooling fan, because the fluid runs through a cooler in the radiator.

Hello Everybody.
Does anybody think a hard wire kit with a switch to mount on the inside of you car would sell?
It would also be a little cheaper.

Thanks
Matt

Default Feedback on Switch

Hi I have the wireless remote and my only suggestion if you do decide to go with a switch instead of the wireless would be to include a light that goes on when you turn the switch on so that you know that the fans are running. That would be my only issue is that when using the wireless remote I can't tell if there on over the sound of the engine. I do check them from time to time with the key on and engine off to make sure that they do go on when using the remote. Other than that I love your product.

Good idea with the light!

This is also a great upgrade for people with automatic transmissions to help keep them cool.

Well here is my take on this product.

1. After I ordered it, I had it in my hand in two days.

2. I installed it with no problem, it was easy.

3. Hit the switch and the fan comes on, hit it again and it shuts off.

Question: If the fan is running and I hit the button what will it do?

Do I have to shut it off manually?

Thank you for your business scarecrowkc5!

If the fan is running because the computer turned it on and you press the CoolIt ON button the fan will stay ON even if the computer turns it off. The CoolIt will not interfere with the Computers operation of the fan. In other words, if say you turn the fan off with the CoolIt but the computer wants the fan on, the fan will stay on until the computer wants it off. Also, if you turn the ignition off the CoolIt will turn off and you will have to reactivate it the next time you want to turn the fan on.

Thanks,
Christian

Do you know if the fan runs the whole time the AC is on?

Let me see if I got this right.

When I start the car and press the Coolit ON button the fan will run until I either press the Coolit OFF button or I shut off the car.

To your first question. I believe the computer turns the fan off at 35mph with or without the a/c on, but if you have the CoolIt ON the right side fan will continue to run. So if you are going to be on the freeway or something like that you could turn the CoolIt off.

Second question. You are correct.

Thanks
