Hi All, I have xb9r 2003, and I am wondering if the cooling fan is working or not. I use my bike to go to the school. To go to school, I use the highway for 5 minutes and ride in the city for 10 minutes. The cooling Fan was turned on every time when I got to the school in May and first half of June. However, in these days, the cooling fan was not turned on after I got to school..I checked Engine Lamp every time before I ride the bike and Engine Lamp looks fine.
I just took 1 hour service 3 weeks ago and I do not want to take 1 hour service again...
Do you have any idea if the cooling fan is working or not? Thank you very much and best regard

I would say that your cooling fan or its related circuitry/sensor(s) may have a problem. It's is definitely worth having checked by your dealership.

Dear Blake and all buell biker,
I found another problem. Today, When I go to the school, I inserted the key and turn it on, then I turned the main switch on. Then, TIME and TRIP were reset... I guess the problem is not only cooling fan, but whole electronic system.. Is there anyone who has similar experience? Is there any advise?

make sure your connections at the battery are clean and tight.

If the connections are good, your battery may be suspect.

Also check all ground strap connections.

Today, I went to H-D dealer and tell them about cooling fan. They suggested me to ride 1 hour at high rpm. I followed their suggestion and after I parked my bike, The cooling fan turned on! Thus, there was no problem with the fan...
Thank you for all your advises. I did everything you advised me before I brought my bike to H-D. Now, I am surprised that dropping only 10 degrees can affect cooling fan switch.
Again, Thank you very much for your advise.
