HPP+ On/Off Temps.
I bought a used Hypertech Power Programmer Plus off of ebay and it did not come with a manual. Does anyone know the fan on/off temperatures for the 160* and 180* settings?

Re: HPP+ On/Off Temps. (STL94LT1)
I don't remember the numbers off the top of my head, but I want to say 175F on and 160F off...
I'm running the stock thermo in my 96 and told the HPP+ that I have a 160F thermo... The fans actually come on about 2 minutes or so at idle before the thermostat even opens...
It keeps the temp gauge rock steady at 190F on the digital read out winter or summer...

Re: HPP+ On/Off Temps. (wake)
I believe that is right... I'm running the stock thermostat as well I programmed my fans for 182 , depending on the temp which lately has been in the hundreds, I'm running about 197. Which is still a farcry from the scarey stock 230 degrees.
When I had an hpp+ with the 160 and the fans programmed it seemed to run a rock solid 180 degrees..

Re: HPP+ On/Off Temps. (STL94LT1)
It's been a while but I think the HPP programming for the 160 thermo turns both fans on at 185 and off at 180. If you are interested I can scan the manual and e-mail it to you tomorrow (6/19).
Well, it has been a while. HPP programs the fans for the 180 thermo 213 on / 205 off. For the 160 thermo 192 on / 185 off.

You may want to give Hypertech a call and see if they will send you a manual. A few years ago I bought a Hypertech (original model) used from another person and called Hypertech to ask a question. When the guy learned that I had the older model, he told me to send it to them for the newer "plus" model. They did this at NO CHARGE--kudos to them.

Re: HPP+ On/Off Temps. (STL94LT1)
Hey guys, other than the fan running constantly would there be any other problems with me leaving in the 180* stat and running the 160* program. I would only run this for the summer and most of my trips are less than 20 miles. I don't want to run the 160* in the winter and I am to lazy to change thermostats seasonally.

I would say it won't pose a problem, the fans will run and it just won't get quite as cool, but yes very few months changing the thermostat would get old...

Re: HPP+ On/Off Temps. (STL94LT1)
I you guys don't want to change thermostats, you can spare the expense of the HPP3 and just turn on the a/c. The fans come on automatically when the a/c is on via the a/c pressure switch.........
