My car's heat gauge began to show hotter and hotter and was in the red pretty deep. The secondary gauge I have installed which comes from the block showed the temperature getting to about 185 or so. My first fan kicked on, but the 2nd fan never did.  Normally it comes on shortly after the first one.  I don't know if the gages were reading incorrectly or what, but it seemed as though the gauges were continuing to climb.On my way home the same thing happened until about half way home when all of a sudden both gauges dropped down to their normal range. Any ideas?Thanks.Sincerely,ChrisSent via the Samsung Galaxy S9+, an AT&T 5G Evolution capable smartphone

   Hi folks, a funny thing happened on the way to the Rotary meeting. My
   car's heat gauge began to show hotter and hotter and was in the red
   pretty deep. The secondary gauge I have installed which comes from the
   block showed the temperature getting to about 185 or so. My first fan
   kicked on, but the 2nd fan never did.  Normally it comes on shortly
   after the first one.  I don't know if the gages were reading
   incorrectly or what, but it seemed as though the gauges were continuing
   to climb.
   On my way home the same thing happened until about half way home when
   all of a sudden both gauges dropped down to their normal range. Any
   ideas?
   Thanks.
   Sincerely,
   Chris
