Well im new to this forum so I want to say hello first.
Second, I replaced my t-stat yesterday with the correct oem temp t-stat. Problem is while sitting still I see it reach the M on normal then the t-stat opens and it falls to N on normal. Everything looks fine. While on the way to work this morning with it being about 25 degrees F, it did ok only reaching the O in normal falling to below the N when it opened doing about 40 MPH. When I hit the interstate it fell all the way to cold while doing 70 MPH. I got off the interstate and it rose back up opening and closing between M and N.
I have heard of a stuck open t-stat going to cold on the interstate but it operates fine while sitting still.
What could be the problem?? The heat out of the heater was hot until i hit 70 then it was only luke warm at best.
