Default Tunercat question

Anyone use Tunercat? I feel like I'm doing something wrong with adjusting the electric fan temps. I want them to kick on at a slightly lower temperature, but even after changing the temps and loading it onto the computer, (1995 OBD1), the fans seem to be turning on the same as before. Anyone have experience with Tunercat? Thanks

Check your constants to make sure there is not a setting in there that overrides your table settings.

I'll check again, but I didn't see anything in there that would affect it. I must be missing something.

Around 212F for the first fan, 215 for the second.

Make a big change and see if it works. The thermostst in a 1995 lt1 is a 180 degree so set 185 and 190 and see if that works.

Figured it out. I had to change the 'Fan high/low vehicle speed threshold' to greater than 0mph. Which seems silly, but that is what did the trick.
